If you want to give all of your belongings over and be locked out of the hotel and your room until they are ready to let you in the barred and locked front door. I have never stayed in a hotel that’s asks for the hotel key back every time you leave the building. They also ask that you leave your valuables at the front desk. The camera system in this hotel with the main screen looks like this place is watching everything in the building for some reason and you should be aware of your surroundings. This place is shady!!! The building had a health and safety code posting that chemicals in the building were known to cause cancer. This is also near the Tenderloin District. The doors are barred and locked and you have to wait for someone to let you in. No one ever answers the phone so imagine standing outside in a bad neighborhood waiting for someone to come open the door whenever they decide to. If that’s for you, this is your place. Look at the pictures and tell me you would want to stay here

A charming vintage property with polite and helpful staff. Don’t come here if you all the bells and whistles of a corporate chain; come here if you want to go back in time 100 years and bathe in a claw foot tub and show your kids what a pay phone looks like. Don’t worry, sheets are new and clean, towels are replaced daily, and it’s a comfortable stay. That said, San Francisco has a large unhoused population, and this neighborhood isn’t immune.

My father and I stayed at the hotel for several days while visiting San Francisco. This hotel was a time capsule. We met the owner several times and he has done his best to keep the hotel in its original condition when it opened in 1912. The hotel was clean, staff was friendly, and well managed. Outside the hotel was a bus stop and subway station. If you are looking for a simple quaint hotel this fits the bill. Thanks

Badly designed hotel but cheap

Not a good hotel. It has an old rustic feel to it which is appealing. It’s also cheap. Right on market, so convenient location. Problem is it lacks a lot that even cheaper hotels have. It feels like they banked everything on location, and skipped a lot of hotel common sense. The heat there is poor. They’re radiators, and one of ours didn’t work. It is also only on from 6pm - 6am. Very freezing in the Winter. There is no place to put your towel in the bathroom. So you exit wet into a cold room. Think sinks are on the outside of the bathroom. The entire room is carpeted, so that seems like a very bad idea too. The elevator also doesn’t seem safe at all. It shakes when it hits the ground floor before the door opens. The worst is, the front door is locked 24/7. So you can’t enter the building until the host comes and opens it for you. There is only one room key too. You have to turn it in each time you leave the building. So if you’re traveling with friends or spouse it can make things very tricky. 4/10 Good for a night, but not for a vacation

The hotel is unfortunately in the worst area I’ve ever seen with my own eyes, I didn’t know it was this bad. The homeless are openly taking substances and using the middle of the street for the bathroom. It’s a very scary experience, you can hear them from the hotel window all night long. The building itself is interesting and needs some serious renovation, there is some cool aspects to the hotel with some old school furniture and memorabilia. It does unfortunately have a bad smell throughout the building too. The tv in the room shows a very poor image like it was on a old school box tv, most channels are unwatchable due to how much static is on the screen. The bathroom is okay, but the shower head is non existent so it feels like a garden hose. Lots of great stuff to do in San Francisco just as long as you stay away from the Tenderloin. It will just stain your visit, I’ll never forget how disturbing it was staying in this area. Transport is pretty close to the hotel which is nice, but unfortunately you get crowds of homeless of up to 30 hanging around the bus stop outside. They can just be frozen like a zombie with barely any clothes. The staff at this hotel were polite and always had a smile, even though the front door was locked we never had a problem getting back in. I do wish they mentioned about the coffee we could use, as we noticed that on checkout. This is great for budget but you must be tough skinned, it’s not the owners fault or staff. It was an experience.
