Location was nice but would not stay here again.
Pros:

We could walk most places we went to.

Cons:

The bed was extremely hard. The bathtub was filthy and clogged while we were there. The carpet had big clumps of hair in several places.

Do not stay here
Cons:

This was the grossest room I've ever stayed in. There was hair everywhere. Popcorn all over the ground. The TV was so tiny. My skin was absolutely crawling. The shower had mold and didn't look like it was cleaned properly ever. The walls had a thick layer of dust. And the room smelt like feet. I get that it's an old building but my God. Zero effort in the cleanliness

Good value, excellent location, just don't expect much of a lobby or room... like a nice flophouse.
Pros:

Like a lot of mid-priced hotels in SF, this is a good value in a good location but it could use renovation. The rooms are fine, the beds are fine, the bathrooms are OK. It just feels all a bit dilapidated. But well kept and staff were friendly, and the hotel is just fine. Given how outrageous the prices have gotten in SF, it's a good value. Rooms are small but adequate. And you are near chinatown and union square, easy walk to Market Street.

Cons:

Nothing was bad, it's just an older small hotel with a bit of a charming run-down feel.

Overall the stay was good.
Pros:

I loved the location of the hotel to China Town. The room was plenty big for me and my son. The staff was really friendly and nice.

Cons:

The bathroom was gross. There was black hair all over the bathroom floor. The toliet needed a good wipe down. And the shower had mold everywhere. The bathroom and shower needed a good cleaning.
