Again, it was so unacceptable, we did not stay.
Pros:

The hotel is old, rundown, hot (no air conditioning), room was too small, old, dilapidated bathroom— totally unacceptable. We cancelled our accommodations immediately and went to another hotel.

Cons:

Everything

Horrible
Pros:

Nada

Cons:

No le pongo un 0 porque no me da la opción. Tuvimos que cambiarnos de hotel justo al ver la situación. Las habitaciones eran sucias. El baño estaba lleno de pelos, oxidado y con humedades. Tuvimos un problema con el congelador ya que necesitamos meter una medicación y el hotel no disponía de congeladores que funcionasen correctamente en las habitaciones. Inicialmente reservamos para 2 noches, pero como el personal tampoco nos ayudó en absolutamente nada tuvimos que dormir ahí la primera noche. Perdimos un día entero buscando otra alternativa pero finalmente nos cambiamos de hotel.

Not a good choice for central San Francisco. We will never stay there again.
Pros:

The hotel is centrally located in San Francisco. Unfortunately, the immediate area is now rather run-down.

Cons:

The room was small, old, tired & had no a/c. We needed the windows open to try to counteract the heat & humidity in our room. Sadly, this meant we suffered from the intrusive yelling & swearing of the drunks & drug addicts that populate the area from early evening until morning. Sleep was hard to gain.
