Friendly hostel like environment. You can furthyer the outside street once you enter the doors. I purposely avoided a front facing room to avoid street noise. Bathrooms clean. Carpet in the dorm- like room was stained. Responsive staff. Near transit.

1. It’s not a hotel, but a nice hostel.
There were a few shared bathrooms and shower rooms for so many units on one floor. They are cleaning every day but still people are making those dirty so quickly. Some people didn’t even flush water. Some people didn’t wear clothes to go to restrooms. Such a hostel vibe. Just be aware of that

2. Space is very tight.
One room is for one person. We were two unfortunately and there was not enough space to open our luggages. Definitely no place to sit and rest. Its a room with a bed. Very tight.


3. They have their app replacing the physical keys and while we were traveling around, we were always concerned about having no battery to open all the doors. We bought an extra battery for this reason. Just letting you know before you book.

4. Always homeless people on the street, in front of the hotel door.
Of course, they don’t bother you much, but there were always more than 5 people near the main door, and hundreds, literally hundreds of homeless people some blocks away from the hotel. Make sure to come back early or be with a group.

I loved my stay, the staff was super helpful (cleaning staff.) It was a decently sized room with a bay window and such a cute aesthetic. I was able to reach out to customer service easily, and had very few issues. The proximity to Dolores park and being able to uber everywhere was also a plus. Only downside is the drug abuse happening on the street but that’s pretty much every downtown.

This place is horrible. The inside is gross, the rooms don't have bathrooms and the public bathrooms are NOT clean, so enjoy your foot fungus.

Even worse, the app to get into the building kept breaking, and half the time they don't answer the phone, so you're just stranded on the the street.

When I did finally talk to someone, he kept telling me I was doing something wrong, which I wasn't. When he finally got it to work, I asked him \"how do we keep this from happening again\" and his response was \"I don't know man, that's above my pay\".

You will get stranded in an incredibly unsafe part of town, locked out of your hotel on the streets at midnight with no one to help you. RUN!!!!

There was also a very loud squeaky bed in the room above us. We did however feel very safe and secure. The rooms and shared bathrooms are kept clean. There is a communal kitchen area with complimentary water, tea, and coffee, which was nice.

Honestly don’t know why this place has such high ratings. Mission street and the block immediately surrounding this hotel has homelessness and rampant drug use. You will see drug use, the most filthy and smelly conditions, and is generally unsafe.

The last day I experienced what a few others did where the virtual key stopped working. I was unable to get back into the building despite more than an hour left until my checkout time. Calling the hotel number no one answers, and you can’t leave a message as the mailbox is full. I had to wait until someone else left and tailgate in to grab my stuff and leave.

Inside the hotel a a bit rundown but overall ok. The bathrooms are very small and are cleaned once a day, which depending on usage is ok or not enough. The showers were very clean and well maintained. The back patio “ambiance” is a joke.. you hear homeless yelling randomly and the smell of urine.

The room cleaning was excellent and, generally speaking, was a quiet stay.

But, for a budget stay for a traveller without family it was perfect. An affordable upgrade from a hostile.

I really enjoyed my stay at 1906 Mission - it was easy to find, in a convienent part of town, the showers/bathrooms were always clean, and I didn't have an issue with the electronic locks until the last day. Check out isn't until 11 AM, but the app access stops at 10:30 AM. I went across the street to grab a coffee and was locked out of the building for a good 10 minutes until a member of the cleaning staff heard me pounding on the door. Overall great stay, but getting locked out caused a lot of unnecessary stress, would be great if the app worked until 11 AM on check out day.

The property was kept clean and well stocked. The shared showers and bathrooms were cleaned very regularly. The beds were comfortable and had lots of pillows. The key system to the building and room was electronic with smart locks, so very convenient. The room was rather warm at night but a borrowed fan helped. There were a couple times where the other guests left behind a bit of a mess in between housekeeping visits or were inconsiderate but that is nothing against the property or staff.

What I didn't like was the street the property was on and the immediate area. There were quite a few homeless individuals in front of the front door and nearby periodically. The sidewalk out front is basically a flea market on the weekends for a block and a half in either direction, where you literally have to step over and around people and their stuff spread out all over the ground. It smelled and was dirty, with trash all over the street and sidewalk, and we felt uncomfortable walking to and from the property.

Nice hotel in an area with character

I was worried about staying here after reading some review de área being unsafe and dangerous. The week I stayed in January 2023 was unusually extra extra expensive in San Francisco due to a big conference taking over hotel reservations all over the city si this was my only choice.. the experience was very good. The area is not unsafe, some people selling second hand stuff in the street but not threatening in any way. It’s very close to the subway and there are amazing shops, restaurants and the Roxie film theatre just 2 blocks away. The rooms are small and you have to share a bathroom but in the whole week I stayed there I never once had to wait. The bathroom is spotless and there are plenty of towels and shower gel at all times. It’s almost instantly cleaned after every use. I was very pleasantly surprised. Free coffee in the morning. I’d strongly recommend that you download the key app in advance. It was a seamless experience for me, but I had to send a WhatsApp message on the day to get my contactless key activated. Also make sure you take your phone to the bathroom as otherwise you won’t be able to get back into your room. Make sure you have plenty of battery before returning at night because you need the phone to access hotel

Nice hotel, very cold.

The staff was nice, there was one thing that really made the stay uncomfortable - there was NO HEAT. I got back to the hotel around midnight to sleep and I couldn't see any control for the heat, there was no staff, and I had to wear my clothes in bed so I could stop shivering. I looked everywhere for a control of the heat, but there was none. The hallway was also very cold. The other thing is they have 100s of shampoo and conditioner but no body wash or soap.

First of all, our digital key did not unlock our door. Housekeeping had to open it and the key they used ended up getting stuck in the door. They then called maintenance and it took about 45-60 minutes for them to fix this door issue. My friend and I sat on the bed as they did this and received no accommodations. There also seemed to be no AC in the rooms. A housekeeper knocked on the door in the morning before check out and we stated we were still in the room loud enough for her to hear, yet she proceeded to still unlock the door and try to come in. The cherry on top is there was no one at the front desk, and when we called to ask about AC, the manager or whoever answered the phone said no one was in the building to help us. Overall this hotel is in a shady part of town and has horrible service.

I want to start with some things that may trouble some people but are not an issue because (a) I have traveled a lot outside the United States in places where is is fairly common not to have en suite bathrooms and, (b) I have always lived in large, densely populated cities where, unfortunately, there are a lot of people living or soending a good part of the day ganging out on the streets. The Mission, particularly Mission Street on weekends is crowded with people selling miscellaneous stuff on the sidewalk, including in fron of this horel on weekends. If these things bother you this nay not be the place for you.

Having said that, the hotel is jept spotlessly clean, quiet and nice smart contemporary decir. The staff were great and very responsive. The bed was very comfortable and the shared bathrooms and shower rooms were well appointed and always gleaming. There is a nice little patio area in the back. A BART station is less tha a block so smAFO is onky a half hour away. And there are some very good restaurants within a few blocks on Valencia street. The rooms are not huge, but when I am in San Francisco i am not there to spend any time in my hotel other than to sleep in a comfortable bed in a very clean room. I'd rather spend the money that I'd spend in an expensive hotel on some of the great restaurants and clubs in San Francisco.

If you want clean, a great location for transportation all over the Bay Area, friendly staff check it out.

Mixed feelings. But OK for an adventuresome type.

The management was courteous and considerate; the lodging itself was a mixed experience.

Pleasant surprise is a complimentary light continental breakfast each morning.

The actual hotel building seems not to match the photo that the hotel's advertisement displays.

Restrooms are separate from the room - 2 small lockable stalls per floor level: inconvenient for a guest who needs frequent usage, as one must get fully dressed before each use.

Lockable shower stalls are also remote, adjacent to - but not integral with - the remote restrooms. But they are pleasant, attractively-designed, spacious and well-appointed.

Still, all of that separation can be off putting.

Hotel room itself is pleasant, although noise from the adjoining street is substantial, which explains the presence of ear plugs on the table.

The hotel is located on Mission Street, a busy, congested and perhaps \"grungy\" thoroughfare with heavy bus/vehicular traffic.The sidewalk adjacent to the hotel was used for an urban flea market during the mornings.

Fortunately, the guest rooms are in upper floors.away from pedestrian traffic.

The hotel uses app-based keyless entry for both external-door access and internal access to one's own hotel room.

That keyless entry works well for guests who normally use multiple apps on their mobile phones, but may not be practical for guests whose mobile phone skills are less advanced.

Fabulous place to stay in the Mission if you're not planning on spending much time in your room - and really why would you? ONE block from the BART station, Valencia and all of it's awesomeness right around the corner, definitely make up for kinda sketchy Mission out front. Didn't feel unsafe by any means at all - just typical American city left to its own devices. 1906 Mission is perfect for a coupla days around town.
