Room was OK for money.
The area, and the unfriendly staff.

Stayed here for about 3 nights. Room was adequate, although area was a little scrungy. We did not go out here at night much as we were too worried about walking around after dark. I would not stay here again, but pay a bit more and bit more centrally located in the city if possible. ...read more

Centrally located with things to do nearby walking.
Continental breakfast was a little sparse.

Clean, comfortable with good beds. Quiet with little street noise. Friendly and courteous staff.

The bed was comfortable.
Room was small, normal for San Francisco though.

The hotel was in a great location close to movies, restaurants and transportation and the bed was comfortable.

Great location.
All the beggars in the area surrounding the hotel.

Nice place, with a great staff at a tough price to beat. Aside from the transient beggars around the hotel (a standard anywhere in San Francisco) the location could not be better.
