The room was extremely HOT. Left our room window open the entire night / day and it was still very uncomfortable to sleep. There is a ceiling fan but it definitely did not make too much of a difference. We were on the 7th floor, so the heat definitely rises.

The lobby was cool, great location, and affordable. However there appeared to have been bleach stains in the hallway, the room was musky, and extremely small compared to the pics seen. Kind of a hostel vibe to it.

Excellent location near Union Sq and Powell BART. Rooms are small but for a solo traveller who spends little time in his room it was absolutely fine and well-priced. The place is not new, but it was clean, staff were courteous and attentive and helped me with the extraordinary amount of sports gear I was carrying. My meeting was at the St Francis a couple hundred feet away… stayed here for the entire conference for the price of one night there. And still had time to go back to my room during breaks. Would absolutely stay here again.

The front desk gentleman was not quite welcoming nor informative! He gave us two keys that were only good for the first night of our two night stay! The elevator was in a very bad condition! The paints and wallpapers were coming off. The staff didn’t care closing the doors hard and spoke loudly late at night or early in the mornings. The room bathroom door was very hard to open and the room entrance light wouldn’t function! You had to walk in the dark and turn on the lamp inside the room. Overall, not the experience I was expecting for the price!

There was no heat though they provided a space heater on the second day of a 3-day stay. The window in the bathroom was a slat-style that did not fully close and there was no storm window, so it was very noisy and very cold. The room is small and overall the place needs significant uodating with the exception of the lobby which is nice. Staff was nice and apologetic about the heat; obviously not in their control.

The hotel stated that the room was kind of small, which we already expected. However, the worst part was how loud it was outside. Some kind of machine was running all night, and the front desk said there was nothing they could do about it. We couldn’t sleep at all because of the noise. The staff were nice, but if you’re choosing this hotel just to save $50, it’s not worth it.

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment with my recent stay at your hotel. The accommodation was a total disaster and bore no resemblance to the positive reviews and photos posted online.
Upon arrival, we immediately noticed that our room’s carpets were dirty and had an unpleasant odor. We requested a room change, hoping for better conditions, but unfortunately the second room was no better than the original.
The room conditions were unacceptable:
•Windows were extremely small, allowing virtually no natural sunlight into the room
•Furniture was old and worn out
•The rooms resembled outdated apartment units rather than hotel accommodations
•The appearance was nothing like the photos displayed on your website
The hotel facilities were equally problematic. There is only one tiny elevator serving the entire building. If you’re staying on an upper floor, good luck catching the elevator in a timely manner.
The complimentary breakfast was terrible - the food was not fresh at all. Additionally, there is construction happening in the adjacent building, so unavoidable banging noises throughout the day made our stay even more unpleasant.
I must mention that your front desk staff were friendly and professional. However, there was little they could do about the poor condition of the hotel rooms and facilities.
For the money we paid, this stay was a complete waste. I would strongly advise future guests to spend an extra $100 per night and stay at other comparable hotel

Friendly staff and decent bedding. Bare bones hotel. Tiny rooms, cramped bathroom. Good price, pretty clean, close to Union Square, relatively safe for SF. The hotel was not very full when I stayed there, but very little sound proofing in the rooms, you could hear everything happening in the hall. No air conditioning but there is a ceiling fan and the windows open even on higher floors. Be aware of that if you are going to bring kids, they could fall out. I would stay there again in a pinch.

I love the concept of boutique hotels and try to stay in one whenever I can. From a location standpoint, this hotel is great — close to public transportation, restaurants, and the venue I was attending. The neighborhood isn’t the best part of San Francisco, but since that’s where my event was, the convenience of walking everywhere worked perfectly.

Check-in was quick, though I was a bit surprised by the extra $15 charge for morning coffee and amenities. It ended up including some pastries, so it wasn’t too bad.

Now for the issues. First, the elevator — there’s only one, it’s small, and quite slow. With nine floors and people constantly checking in and out, be prepared to wait. We were on the fifth floor and ended up taking the stairs at checkout, which was fine since we only had backpacks. But if you have luggage, the narrow stairs could be a real challenge.

Second, the noise. Our room was on the fifth floor facing the street and right next to the elevator. Between the street traffic and elevator noise, it was hard to get much rest. The windows and walls definitely need better insulation.

Lastly, while not a deal-breaker, the room could use some updates. The furniture felt a bit dated and there were several stains on the carpet.

Overall, I might give it another try if I need to stay in that area again — but next time, I’d request a higher floor, a room not facing the street, and definitely far from the elevator. And I’d pack light, knowing the elevator situation.

Extremely greedy manager. I made an honest mistake about my trip and have the perception that my flight is on Sunday, which was on a Saturday. They could have maybe partially fined me for a late checkout for an otherwise empty and unbooked room; but instead decided to charge me even more than the nightly rate that was listed on websites. I understand business and their right but also will not forget greediness. Remember my story when you are deciding to do business with this vendor.

I also want to be fair about the service which was decent for the price.

The rooms are very cramped and the windows don’t have screens. I understand it’s an older hotel but you can really tell once you head up the stairs. The rooms have great fans though. There wasn’t pastries available in the morning, just coffee. I wish there were hours set out for when the bar is open and that there was the promised morning selection available, that was super disappointing m. The $15 fee is just a way for them to make more money. The “benefits” of that fee are ridiculous. One of them is slippers by request, if slippers are included maybe you should offer them when guests arrive. It wasn’t a cheap rate by any means and I felt like the rate did not match up to the experience. Not having mini fridges/microwaves in rooms sucks and having to request one seems crazy. Again, if it’s available to guests, it should be offered at check in. We weren’t even given info about WiFi. The staff was nice but not informative about what was available to guests considering the rate AND additional fee. I probably would only stay here as last resort since it’s pretty outdated for the rate offered with the additional required fee.
