We liked the location of the hotel. However, the rest of our experience fell short of expectations. The advertised breakfast was a major disappointment. We arrived around 7:15 a.m., but the only option available was cereal—and there was no more milk. After speaking with the staff, it became clear that breakfast items were not being restocked, which forced us to find a nearby restaurant and adjust our travel plans. The room also left much to be desired. It had a persistent unpleasant odor, especially noticeable when the air conditioning was turned on. On top of that, the AC unit was very loud, making it difficult to relax or get a good night’s sleep. While the location and staff were positives, the poor room conditions and lack of breakfast service significantly impacted our overall experience.

Be warned before booking that this hotel doesn’t have an elevator. I didn’t notice that detail while booking which was my mistake but good for others to know before showing up with young children and four suitcases to lug up two flights of stairs. The parking situation was less than stellar. Only a few spots available on a first come, first served basis. The two bay doors were open all night even though there were signs posted throughout the garage notifying guests of the high crime rate in the area. The room was clean but had a strong dank, musty smell that got worse when the air conditioner would kick in. The bathroom tub was dated and stained and the pillowcases were either stained or had not been cleaned after the previous guest. In between the two double beds was a nightstand with a lamp and two electrical outlets. I use a CPAP machine to sleep and it wouldn’t work on either outlet. I called the front desk to inquire and he said that if the lamp worked then the outlets should be working. My husband pulled the panel out to check the wiring and it was a rat’s nest of wires. Wall mount face plate appears to be just a power bar screwed into the wall plugged into another power bar which is plugged into another hidden outlet. He wiggled the wires until the power bar worked but then I was worried all night about an electrical short. Walls were paper thin. You could hear everything. This hotel might be okay in a pinch but definitely not worth $100+ for a night.

Staff was super friendly and helpful. Building and rooms could use some work. Clean but somewhat dated. Comfortable beds, hot water, everything worked. A little noisy as all doors open to a courtyard. Breakfast was very basic-mostly pre packaged food items.

Good stay at San Francisco

Hôtel bien situé dans San Francisco et facile pour visiter à pied, à vélo ou autres. Attention très petit parking (12 à 14 places) avec la règle 1er arrivé - 1er servi. Plusieurs parkings à côté à 32$ les 24h. Hôtel correct avec chambre modeste et pas très grande mais avec bon confort malgré tout. Petit-déjeuner pas terrible avec peu de choix (gaufres, céréales, yaourt, mais que du beurre ou sirop érable pour les gaufres) : peu vraiment mieux faire pour le tarif. Au final nous avons quand même bien profité de SF et avons été prendre qqs petits-déjeuners à l’extérieur (ihop) pour une meilleure qualité.

This hotel listed free parking, which was true. It didn't indicate that there were only 8-10 spots available and it is first come first serve. I had to park in a paid parking garage down a block. It would have been nice to know that. The area around the hotel seemed fairly safe but there was a homeless person digging through the garbage at the end of the parking area.
