Called during check-in about directions for off-site parking, front desk didnt even know the address to it. After finding the place, we were told it was full - parking is not guaranteed. Wifi was not working and front desk said “I could switch your rooms, but it probably won’t work anyways”. TV does not work without wifi, sheets were stained yellow and room smelled bad. Deceiving listing, when I approached front desk about these issues during checkout, they proceeded to blame expedia for the listing, I’m still waiting for their manager to contact me.

Very uncomfortable place

I wish Hotels.com included a safety rating as part of their reviews. The neighborhood around the hotel felt extremely sketchy and unsafe to walk through — very uncomfortable overall. I think I heard gunshots on the street during the night we stayed. We couldn’t get any rest and ended up leaving for the airport at 4 a.m. It’s not necessarily the hotel’s fault, but I wouldn’t have chosen it if I’d known the area was this unsafe. Definitely not recommended for families.

I checked in late due to a delayed flight. Upon arriving at the hotel, I discovered that my room was not clean or repaired as promised. It took me an hour to receive my room key and finally get to my room. To make matters worse, the night shift girls in charge of the front desk were unfriendly and unfriendly when I arrived.

This unassuming hotel on the edge of the Tenderloin was spotlessly clean and comfortable, and a very good value for a no frills budget hotel. Easy check in, a friendly staff, and a good location close to public transit means that I will stay there again.

This hotel is in the Tenderloin. The noise from the street is very loud and chaotic. The staff was fine but took a follow up to get my receipt emailed to me. The beds were bad, sheets stained, toilet didn’t flush properly, handle on the faucet kept falling off. The lobby looks nice but the rest was a disaster.
