Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very dirty (floors with a clammy/slimy feel), overwhelming bleach smell, cigarette burns in the bed linens, broken heater, sticky tv remote, $100 CASH ONLY deposit required at check in (they will not take the deposit on a card, so I had to go with my luggage in search of an ATM).

Staff was pleasant when we checked in. There were dining options in walking distance. The room was great for the price. We were never in our room much. The rooms are located on a major road so you will hear road noise. We always use a sound machine so it didn’t bother us.

very good location, quiet, but the condition of the rooms still needs a lot of work, but basically everything is very good, I recommend it to everyone and I myself will use their services more than once

the property needs an upgrade - the photos don't come close to the real story. Paint it, restore the room numbers (some only "guessable" based on shadows where room numbers used-to-be), parking not guaranteed when rooms are sold out! The "best rooms" are on the 1st floor - maybe there are 3 of them?

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I'm a super cheap traveler and found this hotel very middle of the road. Thought it was a little pricey for the conditions and amenities, but I guess that comes with the cost of SF. Only note was the parking was kinda stressful- wasn't guaranteed a space after a day of driving around town, and the service was not my favorite. The door/roomkey situation was really bad, the key isn't easy to use- and the staff member wasn't thrilled they had to show me how to get it to work. Otherwise a very average stay!
