Found out after we got there it was in Tenderloin area. Lyft drivers told us some streets to stay away from. Had i known before we would not have stayed here. Beds were terrible, hard and could feel all the coils. No air conditioning. Had to open windows part way (no screens and on 3rd floor) to get air flow. Noisy, sirens, loud music outside at night.

When I first arrived the staff gave me my room card and no other information on what level my room is, when I asked the receptionist he gave me a terrible attitude for asking, the heater in the room would not shut off completely, and when checking in, at first the receptionist wasn’t not going to allow me to due to not wanting to pay a $100 deposit, when my stay was already paid for, he had to bring another staff member to void the deposit.

Bedbugs!!!

This hotel was dirty! First thing I saw at front reception was a dirty syringe on the counter!! When I got inside the room it was dreadful. Paint cracking off the walls. Dirty carpet and bathroom. Old mattress. I Tried to switch rooms but they denied me! Memorial weekend so everything around area was booked so I decided to tough it out. Before going to sleep I noticed a hole in box spring. I was terrified to sleep. I always check for bed bugs but didn’t see an actual bug. BUT when I woke up in the morning I had BITES all across my stomach and arms. Do not stay here!!

Horrible stay

This stay was horrible. The worst place I’ve stayed at. The shower was small and the floor was cracked and dirty. The rooms smelled like cigarettes. The bedding had burnt holes (probably from the cigarettes). The beds were uncomfortable and springy. It was hard to sleep because of the noise all night. 0/10 would recommend this place.
