The hotel is super convenient and very clean. Rooms are on the smaller end, but still plenty of room. Having Washington Square Park right out the door is amazing! There is no elevator, but we knew that ahead of time. We will definitely be back!
Beautiful interior. Comfortable bed. Coffee access all day and night. Lobby comfortable and a good place to hang out if needed. Help staff, quite helpful. Every thing was emasculate. Cleaning person very kind and helpful.
Our travel was business and it was my first experience staying in a keyless Inn in the US. Everything went very well, and communication by text messaging was not a problem at all. Any questions I had were responded to immediately. The room was small, and my only thought was wishing there was a chair to sit on in there. The lounge common area provided that space and the coffee/tea counter was clean, offering everything needed.
The bonus of our stay was the location! It is out of the bustle of the downtown area, easy pick up by Uber, and walking distance to outstanding eateries in Little Italy or Chinatown. HUGE!
Awesome location for us, only downfall is there is nobody working onsite and no tv service

I wasn't able to download the key app onto my phone. Thank goodness Maria, the housekeeper, was still there and gave me an actual key to my room. Room was quiet and clean except for the MILDEW-COVERED TUB MAT. Worst of all was the BROKEN SHOWER/TUB KNOB, so I could not use the shower. I think a partial refund is in order.
My wife and I stayed here 3 times in the last 2 weeks as we were traveling around the state and Oregon. It is now our go to place to stay in San Francisco. It is located in the best location, exactly where we want to be.

Location is ideal for a Northbeach stay. Staff is friendly and responsive. Very old building and common areas are kept nicely. As one would expect for a 3 star. Room number 7 does need a little freshen up. The carpet is very old and stained and I imagine is the reason for the odor in the room. The bay window is lovely but the cushions need to be recovered. Keep it simple. Don’t think you need the bolsters in that area. Just the seat cushions.
