The hotel is in the Tenderloin, a sketchy area with drug addicts and homeless people asking for money and shouting at all hours of the night. It's really sad. I know this isn't the hotel's fault, but it is worth mentioning.
The rooms are small but get the job done. Super clean, nice modern quirky touches. The shower is surprisingly large. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful.

The location wasn't great tbh. Lots of homeless people and drug dealers right outside the hotel, making walking at night very uncomfortable. We ended up taking Ubers to/from the hotel at anything other than first thing in the morning.
The room was small but comfortable. Bed had seen better days but was OK. Overall, inside the hotel was good and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

The walls are paper thin, it's like you are on the street. And because this is a less than desirable area, the copious amount of homeless people right outside the hotel are extremely noisy at night. I also didn't feel safe walking to the hotel at night due to the area, which is a shame because the hotel itself was lovely. Also don't waste time with the airport transfer, an uber would cost the same and be more pleasant.
The staff were brilliant, the room/bed was very small for a queen but it was comfortable, robes were provided in the bathroom and the coffee machines were great.

The location was rough, next door to a homeless shelter with people lined up around the block. The view was of a back street with more homeless people fighting with one another. Kind of scary.
The room was great, they upgraded us to a suite for $10.00, which gave us a second bedroom. The coffee was actually espresso which I enjoyed. They tv's in both rooms were also a plus.

Probably the worst hotel I've ever stayed in, I don't even know where to start... My fiance and I decided to spend 3 days in SF, and we picked this hotel because it seemed not too far from the centre but also the pictures looked good on the website. The truth is that, not only the area is terrible, full of homeless people, drug addicts (which makes it very unsafe and uncomfortable to walk) but also the rooms and the hotel is bad. We probably got the second most expensive room which was the queen room, it was supposed to be a quiet one. The bed was extremely small, towels were dirty, carpet in the room as well. The AC was not working and we woke up in the middle of the night with a strong terrible noise from the AC. We called the reception and they changed us to another room, that was probably as noisy as the AC, because it was right on the main street. You could hear the people in the street passing and car/sirens from ambulances...we ended up not sleeping the entire night. The second day we went back to our initial queen room and someone supposedly fixed the AC...which started making the same noise on the 3rd night...but this time they didn't have any other room available so we just had to stick with the noise and not sleep for another night. Overall the poor reception lady tried to get a discount, which didn't even cover half of the night that we spent in the other room (which was a downgrade). And the manager did not even make himself available once to talk to us which we found ridiculous. Last but not least on the checkout day...after knowing that we had the ac noise the entire night and basically did not sleep, they did not let us have a later checkout all they gave us was 1 extra hour, and every 15 min a cleaning lady came knocking on the door asking when we were checking out on top of phone calls from the reception. The cleaning ladies would also have no respect what so ever in the morning...
Nothing at all
