It's a lot smaller than the pictures show and we put the sign on the door twice to have maid service but they never came to our room. The area is not ideal either. I would suggest going to a hotel closer to fisherman's wharf.

Step-in shower, this was why I chose it. Great & clean bedding, cart to manage luggage & gear, staff nice & helpful. Location near Muni 5 & 38, both going to Golden Gate Park. CVS & Walgreens close by. I have a permanent disability, so accessibility is important, and this place was remodeled & accessible. Front door even had an opener. One just had to be careful about location.

The hotel is pretty small with smell of fresh pain from the renovation. The area near by is not great, with homeless people surrounding the sides and back of the hotel including the valet drop off section. The noise level at night was pretty high, and I did not enjoy the the too thin pillows on the bed. Overall the hotel felt safe and clean but could be better.

Totally recommend. My absolute safe haven, and comfortable quiet place to be during the dead co celebratory weekend. Stayed four nights, no hitches, absolute convenience and access to everything San Francisco had to offer that weekend, super cool staff, friendly, clean, comfortable, quiet, affordable, easy to book…. Would look forward to staying again back in the area.

Actual room was nice and clean, breakfast was nice and simple. Location was decent. hallways had a weird smell. Area is full of homeless people. Don’t get a room that’s next to the main road as you’ll be up all night due to car engine noise. WiFi didn’t work.

Once you enter the hotel, it’s nice: freshly renovated, nice rooms, nice staff. But man, the surrounding area is absolutely terrible: homeless land, smell of human waste everywhere, human feces at every step on the sidewalk, … not the hotel fault at all, but it’s an area of SF that you want to avoid at all costs. Shame, cause again the hotel itself is really nice
