Location

Muy sucio y viejo

I love older hotels, they have history and arn't just plastic hype. My room was clean and smelled clean. The hallway was from another age and so were the staircases so very pleasing. They have an elevator and a dumb waiter. I used the elevator (no worries). Yes, vintage hotels have differences because they are old and that appeals to me. I don't think this hotel had amenities like a weight room or swimming pool. I didn't care because that isn't important to me so didn't notice or ask. I use a hot spot (for privacy and better upload speeds) and a lap top so no idea about their wifi. I wanted a hotel that was central to the area I needed for a meeting. There were several options for public transportation (I used Bart from SFO and then the bus system). There were many local places to eat (I loved the Diner on Geary and Mason. And I did see some interesting music venues all within walking areas. The folks at check in were knowledgeable about local sites and buses. Ticked all the boxes for me. But I am not a "bright young thing" who wants social media hits. Not against that but want comfort and convenience.

Great stay! easy, accessible, and clean!

Excellent value and great location; would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

Rooms are very small. depending on which site you look at amenities are different than when you check in., they do a $250 deposit they actually remove or charge you then return it upon checkout. there is no breakfast as stated.

Did not stay here. The area was very interesting. There was no parking and deposit way more than the Hilton. So went back to the Hilton.

Great location but failed to honor my Travelocity reservation. Upon call to confirm late arrival, they claimed they did not have my reservation. Once I arrived, they found it but then claimed they had no Queen-bed room, so I took what was available, which was a re-purposed cot on wheels made to look like a twin bed. It was awful. For my second night, I renewed my request for a Queen bed but was told I could only get it if I agreed to pay more. Deeply disappointed that I did not get the room that I was promised through my Travelocity reservation. Anyways, it's well located and has a cool retro vibe, but I probably won't stay there ever again.

The staff were super helpful. the room and amenities were lovely. I would have loved a way to heat the room at night.

Love the location

The hotel is the WORST. RUN! I do not recommend The front manager is a racist and misogynist

There was no parking… spoke with staff a day before check-in and told me that they will help us getting a parking but unfortunately, they didn’t.

Horrible do not go here nasty and filthy

Horrible Experience, hotel was dirty no AC staff were extremely rude. They did not let you know about the fees that they will charge and the deposit takes nearly 30 days to receive it back. Horrible would not recommend.

Nothing The staff is all wired. Especially a guy with a tattoo on his right forearm. He is not helpful at all, judging us, stressing us, and is not comfortable talking with us at all. Their security policies are very weird. We have to show and tell them our room key, names, and even IDs every single time we come back to the room. The hotel is located downtown, where a lot of homeless people wander around, so maybe that's why. Their deposit system is very frustrating. They take $250 for the deposit, which is a lot for us. They said it's for the facilities, but technically, most of the interiors are already broken, so I have been worried that they will shift the blame for the already existing malfunction to us. The room was of bare minimum quality. The shower takes 5 mins to prepare warm water, and we took so long to figure out how to stop the water. Most of the outlets are not available. They don't have AC, and the only window is facing the wall of the building next to the hotel.

location is excellent, courteous and accommodating staff, clean even though the building is old please update the interior of the rooms

Shower faucets we're difficult to figure out

Probably one of the worst places I have stayed for the price

Staff was very rude
