  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Oh and there is no AC in the rooms. Had to sleep with windows open in a city ( you can bet how much sleep I got! ) 👎👎👎👎

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    amazing stay and awesome place to stay.

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Incredibly friendly staff and super location

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Staff was nice. I wasn't prepared for the vintage tech: radiator for heat that I couldn't turn off, or the elevator. I see why there was a person opening/closing the doors back then.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    location no AC only heating and it is too hot like hell inside the room that I need to open my window and hear all bypassers conversations and all kinds of outside noise.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    lack of in room coffee maker was unusual. otherwise a clean and safe place to stay

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    Best,

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    The only issues were: the restroom door didn’t have a lock, there was a body hair in the “unused” coffee cup, and a bad odor in the hallways. All in all, the prices were not too bad, but the place can do better.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    Nice rooms excellent value and location!! General Manager Megan was extremely kind, courteous and helpful.. will definitely book this hotel again!!!

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    Easy transportation to the entire city, rooms with just enough space to unpack and relax and two communal rooms to work, hang out, do laundry or prep food. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great value in San Francisco. Shout out to Meghan and Rolando for being extra helpful with check-in/out at weird hours and storing my bags for much longer than planned on my check out day.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    For the price it is great, very handy to have a fridge in room with the shared kitchen area to reheat food and to have an ice maker there too.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    At check-in no one was at the front counter. I had to sit and wait outside. The bathroom had mold the chemicals that they use for cleaning was very strong in the room. Luckily the windows were accessible to open to air it out the room. I asked for specific service and was denied Was told to contact management management are useless.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Good economy option for SF. Great location. Great staff. Everything clean. A little old school, but not in a bad way. Mix of residential and hotel. Great shower.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    It was clean and with a comfortable bed ,but challenging elevator doors 😄 need two people

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    I've stayed here many times. Right when you open the door to the room, the smell of the bedding is amazing haha. Its really cozy and i love having the city feel in a smaller package. Opening the windows is awesome.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    It’s in the middle of everything in downtown. Very convenient for commute, coffee & food.

  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Reasonable for the price, but cleanliness needs improvement. I noticed some bugs including a roach in the room.
