The stay was great, the staff was excellent, however upon checking in we discovered a huge cockroach in our room! My wife is HIGHLY allergic to cockroachs so it definitely put a damper on our first night. Luckily the staff handled the issue in an acceptable time frame and we ended up having an ok time.

Small and uncomfortable. Great location.

Funky, old hotel in great location. No front desk personnel - entrance and room key all digital. We knew the room would be small but no lamps or reading lights - just an obnoxiously bright ceiling light. No air-conditioning - the room was HOT. No chairs or place to sit other than on the beds. And the TV didn't work - no internet connection. Overall the 2-night stay was passible but definitely not comfortable. Also, rooms on the Rush St. side are very loud - not recommended.

The rooms were extremely hot. There was only one shareable bathroom for everyone on the floor I was in, and it was in bad condition. The elevator didn’t work all the time. Place was very unclean. The only part of that hotel that was good was the bar. I will never stay there again. I not recommend anyone body do either.

This spot is a total vibe! Best place for our first trip to San Fran. The check in & out process was so easy. We were on the 5th floor in a corner room. LOVED having the experience of the fire escape. The room was clean & ended up having a mini fridge. When texting the front desk for things, they replied immediately. The elevator was so cool! The bathtub was amazing! My only issues were - 1. the tv remote did not work. Probably needed new batteries, but we didnt try to watch TV until out last night so it was not a big deal 2. The bathroom sink, although I love "old" sytle, upgrading to a single handle with mixing valve so you can have warm water, not just hot or cold We loved out stay! Would stay here again.

1. The bed is the cheapest model they could find, felt like you were laying on an eggcrate over plywood, with the exception of the large steel beam going right down the middle of the bed that you really felt dig into your back anytime you tried to move. 2. No AC/heat. This is not a nice new hotel building. This is an old old SF building and while nice hotels put in those amenities for their guests, this hotel feels it's fine that you sweat in your room while sitting still. 3. Ventilation. There was one window in the room. It opened onto an enclosed lightwell with a bunch of the other rooms and the cackling girls from the other rooms filled that entire space and permeated my hotel room even with the window closed. The window which had broken blinds and no screen so, you know, bugs flying in. Also, no window in the bathroom which I'm pretty sure is a violation. 4. There were holes in the walls. 5. There was an electric cord coming out of the wall going to nothing just dangling out of the wall. 6. The only plug I had to use was a multi-prong extension cord just laying on the floor under the desk. 7. The art didn't cover everything so there were just patches of drywall and unpainted walls. 8. I'm pretty sure someone died in the closet since it looks like a serial killer hiding space. 9. The furniture (nightstand and desk) felt like they had been found discarded on the street and put into the room

I had a very disappointing stay. The hotel did not feel secure at all, the hallways and room were dirty, and the constant smell of weed made it uncomfortable. This is not the experience I expected.

The whole aesthetic and idea behind the hotel is awesome, and very affordable which I think is a big deal. The art is super cool and at least in my room had humorous undertones. My only issue is the walls are super thin and not at all soundproof and the beds are poor quality.
