For starters they use a keypad for all their rooms that require a 7 digit code...the problem is the keypad isn't backlit and good luck remembering 7 digits by which they advise you to take a screenshot or jot it down...aside from that, the TV in my room was disconnected from the WiFi so you couldn't really use it...they opted me to switch rooms...by the way, the rooms do not have phones so you'll need to use your cell phone and/or email to communicate with guest services who may or may not respond promptly. As for the cleanliness, the bathroom sink and shower had hair strands that were left by I assume the previous guest. This tells me the bathrooms aren't thoroughly cleaned after the guest leaves...staff begins to clean nearby rooms and hallways pretty early so don't expect to sleep past 9am if you're a light sleeper. This is located in Nob Hill which I guess is the downtown area which is full of homeless, "service ladies", and questionable individuals... I chose this place due to price and the proximity of the event I was going to, and also because I was only staying for 2 nights so I guess it's ok under those circumstances, there are better hotels a few blocks away so if you can afford it I suggest staying in one of those instead.
Hair strand and dark stains in tub.
2 of the rooms had these dark stains, I'm guessing it's a chemical imbalance in their cleaning solution...foreign hair strand is apparently optional

The inside of the hotel was clean, modern, and classic. The walls are thing so may hear your neighbors. The area is okay but it is close to the unhoused neighborhood. There is no free parking by the hotel but they can refer you to a paid parking garage. What helped to survive was unlimited coffee and access to hot water in the lobby. there is also shared microwave oven in the lobby

When I got to The Carlton, I discovered it isn’t on the edge of a bad neighborhood, it is in the bad neighborhood. The street in front of the lobby was full of smokers. The smoke smell penetrated the lobby that was not very clean. I asked to see my prepaid room before checking in but they wouldn’t do it without taking an imprint on my credit card. That seemed shady. In short it wasn’t safe, it wasn’t clean. I just ate the money I spent and went somewhere else.
