The location was great. Friendly staff. Cute little room. The price was also good. I will come back.
Disliked: It needed updating but that's probably why the price is good.

Horrific! Don’t believe the photographs.
Liked: Eric, the receptionist who checked us out was very friendly.The bed was comfy but the pillows were not.
Disliked: Where do I start…?Unfriendly welcome on arrival. The receptionist on duty couldn’t even crack a smile or say please/ thank you.The building itself is very run down. Not at all like the pictures.Strange smell (musty, dirty, unclean) on entering the building.An archaic lift/elevator. It felt like a death trap. You could lose a finger (or a whole arm) on the metal sliding cage door.Now to the room…We were asked to leave a £150 deposit to cover breakages. What a joke!The walls were covered with damage and greasy smears. Paint was peeling and there were scuffs, holes and stains on the walls.Even though the bed sheets appeared to be clean, the rest of the room did not give that impression. We felt the need to wear shoes all the time.The heat! The room conditioning is an open window on an extremely busy street. We were there in March. I can’t even imagine what it would be like in the hotter months.The noise! There are no words… imagine sleeping on a recycling plant, where truck loads of glass is being dumped from a tipper truck throughout the night. Sirens blaring. People shouting. Dogs barking. As we needed the window open (due to the heat), it felt like they were in the room with us. The bathroom appeared to be clean, but very old and dated. The light fitting above the sink was hanging off the wall and flickered every time it was turned on. As bad as the hotel is inside the area outside is equally horrible. Not suitable for solo travellers, families or female travellers. We were in SF for 5 nights. Thankfully we had only booked this hotel for 1 night as we wanted to make sure we liked it first. We had a lucky escape as we then moved to an incredible hotel in Fisherman’s Wharf.

Liked: Great location and good value. Helpful staff.
Disliked: Breakfast basic as expected but what was available varied hugely. Some porridge sachets, branflakes, fruits and yoghurts available for a couple of days and then not.
