    Solid low-budget hotel in the heart of San Francisco

    The only thing missing was a hair dryer. Also, the shower fixtures could be replaced with newer ones. We also didn't like the bedding as it was 2 sheets and a blanket in between like a sandwich. The free breakfast in the morning is just some pastries. They are good but not really healthy but the deal is to get you running in the morning. Unfortunately, even though they serve it from 08:00-10:00, there is usually hardly anything left at 09:00. One day there was a Chinese guy on an electric scooter in the lobby who emptied half of the display into a plastic bag and left, so no wonder other hotel guests sometimes get almost nothing.

    Very solid budget hotel in the heart of San Francisco. Sure it has seen better days, but the location, staff and amenities are unparalleled at this price point. The staff was friendly, the rooms had everything you need. We had a problem with our room at first as the hearing in the room was at maximum power and wouldn't turn off. The problem seemed to be on the entire 2nd floor. It was impossible to sleep there as it was like a dry sauna and you couldn't open the windows. However, the front desk staff moved us to a room on the 5th floor in the middle of the night so we could sleep well and we were happy with the new room and we could even open the windows and let in some fresh air. Also it was very quiet in this higher floor room. The elevator also worked, but you couldn't get to the 2nd floor. At the reception you can get tea, coffee, water and ice around the clock. There is also a microwave and a computer. The hotel is within walking distance to all parts of the city and public transportation is close by. There are also quite a few places to eat in the area.

    The hotel was well worth it. The location, close to China town and in walking distance to other attractions like Pier 39, was exactly what we needed. The room was basic but extremely clean and the staff was very friendly and super accommodating (we were able to check in already at 9am instead of 3pm and were offered a new room when our key card was not working properly).

    The staff was not very pleasant. The receptionist doesn't say the basic 'hello' and smiles in a fake way. Attending staff just pulls your dishes aggressively while you are still eating your breakfast from it. The rest of the experience was fine, though, although a bit pricey, but I guess that's because of the location.

    The room was roomy. The bathroom was clean, with well functioning water. The beds were comfortable. The location is great.

    If I have to name one thing it would be that insulation is not great, so you can hear noise from the hallway. But luckily other guests were quiet and considerate.

    Great value for money. The building is old, but well kept. Rooms have everything you need and in the morning there is a nice small breakfast.

    Pleasantly surprised! I wanted someplace quiet, safe, within walking distance to the places I needed to go, and this was it! Room was perfect size (even for 3 people), beds were comfortable, and you can’t beat coffee/tea 24 hrs and pastries in the morning. Desk staff were friendly and helpful! I’d stay here again!

    The location is excellent if you want to explore San Francisco. Basic hotel that is clean, safe and functional. The hotel served cookies and coffee, tea and hot chocolate every morning. Cozy breakfast places right next door if you want to eat a proper breakfast. There is a laundromat on the same street.

    the walls are very thin, so we can hear the neighbours... as in any old building, I guess.

    the location is superbe, very close to Union Square, many shops and restaurants around; the staff was very friendly and arranging; comfortable bed; water fountain, tea and coffee all day, and fresh pastry in the morning; felt safe in that neighbourhood.
