Can’t beat location for proximity to SOMA bars. Shower had amazing water pressure. Lack of outlets for phone charging and CPAP. Pool was closed for entirety of stay. Noisy outside noise and some sketchy characters around

Staff not nice, not helpful. Dirty rooms. noise from the street. The room is not cleaned every day. There are no towels in the room if you don't ask. Very expensive and inconvenient parking. A feeling of insecurity in the room.

I had the do not disturb sign on my door and room service still tried to get into my room. Thankfully i had the chain lock on the door as well. It was both scary and creepy though because whoever opened my door kept it open for a minute or so before closing it again. I didn’t react right away or even say anything because I got woken up by it and being a woman by myself in the room deterred me to do so as well. Every night there was a homeless person screaming outside the hotel about going in the rooms and hurting people. The walls are so thin that you can hear people in the other rooms just talking. The room itself was clean when we got it which was good. The closet did smell bad though like kind of wet and dusty. I wouldn’t suggest to walk around this area at night by yourself at all. It is conveniently close to a lot of fun spots, but even for the 2-4 min drive I preferred to take an uber. The people at the front desk were nice though. The blankets are very thin like close to being a couple bed cover sheets. So i would suggest to bring your own or you could bring up the heat in the room. The bedroom has a mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker. This place does have a parking area that you can pay additionally to park. The price was about $22 a night. You drive through the entrance and the parking is towards the back and is closed off from the streets which is nice. Since the parking lot is accessible at all hours though I would still suggest to clear out your car.

Broken ice machine and vending machines. No breakfast. My room was big but only had 1 chair. Rooms that size should have a loveseat or at least multiple chairs. Front desk staff was nice but couldn't reach the night shift front desk person when i needed ice and water.

Overall great
Conveniently located around a lot of food and nightlife. I stayed 2 days for a rave with friends and was thoroughly satisfied with the friendly staff, the size of the room and its amenities. I love that there is on site parking inside a gated area too. Overall we had a great stay.

close to bill graham. 12 min walk. Simple hotel. No lamp shades on the lamps tho. Black mold spots hidden under paint in the restroom. Stayed for two nights.overall decent for events if u just need a spot to lay ur head after an event/concert/rave. They dont accept chime or any of those type of cards either so expect to have a real bank card like wells fargo, us bank, excetera.

This is not a luxury room, but it's the right price. It's very basic, but it does have WiFi. My only real issues are that there are big gaps around the door and the frame and cold air and noise comes in easily. I'll bring ear plugs next time, but there is also no beadspread or comforter on top of a very thin blanket (or maybe that is a very thin beadspread?). The doors also have no springs, so other residents are slamming the doors at all hours which shake the building. If you are a heavy sleeper, bring an extra blanket and you should be fine.

I like staying at this property despite being inconvenient to get to. It is relatively quiet and trouble free. This time however I was woken up two nights in a row by loud sitting by drug addicts outside on the street. Not fun! Also there is hardly any access to power outlets in the room. Property manager, please do something about it. I would select staying here again.

I didn't know that the property is doing upgrades. There's a few problems but not enough to leave. Sink is lose, phone not working, outlet burned out, and lamp not working but dimmer on lights very nice.

Kind of a dump. Shower is designed for someone under 5’5”. Area seems like it’s transitioning. Not sure if up or down. There are a couple of nice coffee shops a short walk.

This hotel or motel is terrible. The attention was super bad. The area feels dangerous. I was going on a conference and i had to cancel my stay there. It is no a place to be with kids, and not for a long stay. When I got to the bedroom, there was a very strong cigarette smell. The bathroom felt disgusting and the looking of the bedroom is horrible. The pictures are a lie. Please don't waste your money, It is a horrible place.

Overall it’s a decent place for the money. They seem to be upgrading the room interiors. We’ve stayed a few times and have seen various stages of upgrades in different rooms. Last time when we went to get into our car in their garage there was a couple doing drugs behind our car. Not the safest feeling.

Great place to stay for one night. Didn’t like how they didn’t have plugs to use to charge our phones, we had to unplug a microwave to be able to charge our phones. But, service was great, clean rooms and bathrooms, just need a little remodeling. Recommend staying here if you’re in town for one night.
