Staff did not want to give us 2 room keys. Finally did but only 1 would work at a time. We only had a box of kleenex in our room. No toilet paper. The staff refused to give us more than 1 roll of toilet paper. Towels were of the poorest quality I have ever experienced in a hotel in my life. Parking is available but spaces are limited with a very tight parking lot. Elevator is very questionable. Would not recommend.

Hotel is in the sketchiest of San Francisco neighborhoods and the concierge wanted to charge me a fee to park in a lot that only had 3 other cars parked out of the 12 available spaces. I felt that my car would surely be broken-into had i not paid the extortion fee. Then they wanted hotel fees which is ridiculous considering I'd likely get bed bugs in the establishment. I choose to leave even though i likely would forfeit all i paid. Better safe then sorry and never go to these scammers! In the end, you get what you pay for. I thought a discounted room would be adequate, but the pantless homeless man sleeping next to the trash bins in the parking lot was a sure sign that I should pay a bit more for an established hotel with secure parking and no homeless roaming the parking lot.

Staff was friendly. Room was clean! Dirt cheap for downtown San Francisco… cheap $30 covered parking. Walking distance to Concert and show venues. 20 min Uber ($10 depending on time and date) to the Chase center.

If you’re expecting the Ritz, look elsewhere. If you understand the area you just booked the hotel, the price, parking… then this place is a gem. I was with my daughter and her two friends ages 17 to19. While the area was a little sketch, I never once felt it was unsafe for me and the girls…

I would 100% stay here again.

This is a bare bones hotel but it was cozy for what we needed it for, which is walkable to the Civic Center. Yes, it can be loud outside but it is a city and for the most part it was not even bad. They do provide ear plugs if you need them. Bring a credit card and yes, they do charge for parking.

Staff member was very arrogant and at 1st refused to take my debit card and said it needed to be a credit card.

But the main issue is with yourself by not showing the extra parking charges on the main list, also the need for a credit card should be shown on the main booking section as well.

Going back to the receptionist, he said I would have 5 mins to unload my car or it would be towed away if I didn't pay.

As for the room, that was acceptable and no more but the main issue is the noise all night, the building must be built with very thin bricks as the traffic noise and general outside noise was so load. Also the location is a drug den paradise, which isn't safe whatsoever.

PROS:
1. Room was very clean, no bedugs, no mold, no cameras.

2. Mattress was in good shape, well supplied amenities

3. Check in/out process was ok. Room can be paid with debit card, but parking and deposit only by credit card.

4. Building held up well during a 4.3 earthquake.

5. One liquor store market right across the street with easy access (not much else around though)

CONS:
1. Bad neighborhood. Sketchy people and a lot of loud noise and yelling all night long. Earplugs are provided, and rooms cant be accessed from the street, only by keycard, making it safe.

2. TV only works when you manually push TV buttons, and switch it to HDMI 1

3. Parking is a tight squeeze and limited. Your parking spot may be parked right at sidewalk, so make sure there are no valuables left in your car.

OVERALL: I would definitely stay here again because its cheap and clean. Just come prepared and know where youre going so you dont end up lost in the Tenderloin area a couple of blocks away.

The staff is friendly & accommodating. The rooms could use some upgrading but doesn't take away from how clean and well maintained they are. The location was my only drawback. The area is VERY noisy (ie could hear the bus pull up every 30 mins). At night the car noise slows down but the homeless tend to take over (ie loud screaming, music). I understand it is out of the control of the establishment however it does affect someone's stay. I felt safe the whole time, since room keys are necessary to access the rooms.

Stayed here for one night while visiting SOMA because it was convenient to the bars I was going to and had reasonable parking rates. The building is old but in good condition, with plenty of parking. There was even an elevator which I was surprised about. The room was more than adequate and had a refrigerator & microwave. Again, it was old, but very clean.

The neighborhood it's in suffers from the usual problems in urban areas, although it's been cleaned up a lot over the past couple of years. If you're not intimidated by city life you'll have no problems walking around here. There are plenty of markets and restaurants within a couple of blocks, and it's a short walk to many of the more popular bars in SOMA, making it very convenient.

I'll definitely be staying here again on my next trip.

Okay but room for improvement.

We stayed overnight as a place to crash after seeing Green Day at Oracle park:
Pros: It was clean, the plumbing worked, and they offered plenty of soap and coffee in the room, as well as earplugs, which we quickly learned were there to block the sound of the streets outside.
Cons: There was only one thin blanket on the bed and we got cold, and the tv didn't work. I also found it weird that they have the coat hanger right by the bathroom sink where you would normally hang towels. We felt lucky that we no one broke into our car.
This was an okay place to crash, but I wouldn't recommend staying here formore than one night.

The property was in good conditions, it was clean, room was spacious. However, I was surprised when the hotel charged me an additional $30 per nights for parking. Expedia did not disclose that parking was not included with the reservation. Other than the unexpected parking fee; my stay was good. But the streets of San Francisco are not safe.Too many mentally ill people roam and live on the streets, making it very unsafe.
