Pros:

Nothing. It’s Old. Scary. Falling apart. If you know SF it’s in the tenderloins. Enough said.

Short but convenient stay.
Pros:

The accommodation was of walking distance to most of the places that I were venturing during the weekend.

Cons:

I had to change rooms due to how slow, water in my shower was going down the drain.

La calidad de la habitación no coincide con el resto
Pros:

El tamaño de la habitación y la comodidad del lugar son destacables y la ubicación no es mala

Cons:

Es un edificio antiguo, sus instalaciones, como el ascensor, necesitan una modernización urgente. Muy cerca hay mucha gente que vive en la calle y no dejarse ser peligroso

Pros:

Wonderful family owned hotel. The TL or tenderloin neighborhood is San Francisco can always be a bit sketchy, but the city seems to have cleaned up in the last couple of years. This is an old hotel which I’m sure if the walls could talk would have quite the stories it has one of the oldest elevators in the city, which is really cool. I would definitely stay here again and it’s a great hotel when you’re on a budget.

Pros:

“From the moment I stepped into The Admiral Hotel, I was enveloped in a serene, eco-chic oasis that felt like a love letter to Northern California’s natural beauty. The lobby, adorned with reclaimed redwood and a living moss wall, immediately set a tranquil tone, with the scent of clean air offering a refreshing escape from the city bustle.
