Elevator broke with me in it for 20 minutes front desk argued with me about it. Was stuck on fourth floor when doors finally opened I had to walk up to the 6th floor. Was supposed to stay two nights but I was afraid to use the elevator so I walked down 6 floors to the lobby the next morning and left. I’m trying to get a refund for the second night

This was a pretty cool hotel, very convenient to where I had to go for my trip and was not a high traffic area so it was enjoyable very close to the scooters that I rented over the weekend. A good distance from the pier and Golden Gate Bridge, but very good place to stay if staying in the city.

The staff were all courteous and helpful. I loved hearing that until last year a single family had owned the hotel since 1929.

Windows were falling out if the casing, I physically had to remove it from the track and put it back in. Also they were paper thin so you heard every conversation on the street. And since this hotel is in the Tenderloin the conversations were spicy. Beds are the cheap metal frames from Amazon with a mattress on top. Same with the curtains, cheap from Amazon. Nothing was commercial grade. Furniture that wasn't from Amazon looked 2nd hand, but like cheap FB Marketplace 2nd hand that needs some work. The photos online are NOT an accurate depiction of the rooms.

Had a great stay here. The room was clean, comfortable, and well taken care of, and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The location was convenient and made getting around really easy. Everything felt smooth and stress-free, which is exactly what you want when staying at a hotel. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.
