Pros:

The advantages include only the location,
- close to the Muni and BART stations,
- close to the city center

Cons:

- The bathroom was in very poor condition; when you took a shower, the entire pipes would vibrate very loudly.
- There was no cleaning or towel replacement during the entire stay (that's how I hung the sign). Even when I caught the cleaning lady and asked for a replacement towel, she took them but didn't bring new ones.
- There was a lot of wind through the cracks in the doors, so they had to be sealed with something to prevent the cold and the loud noises.

Run!
Pros:

Aside from sleeping with critters I didn’t bring, the broken shower rod, and a fan that actively refused to participate, it was a great visit!

Lots of problems .
Pros:

Chris at the front desk was exceptional with customer service.

Cons:

The hotel was occupied with displaced families living in the hotel. Daily visits from Welfare and legal authorities.
Screaming kids running through commons area
Drug addicts running in and out of rooms and hiding in the stairs.
While the rooms are non smoking the smell of Marijuana comming into my room. And as I came in late after an event I was told by security the night desk person wanted me to go to me room while I smoking a cigarette.
I was in the parking lot near the stairs
The room is non smoking
So I went out side to smoke away from other rooms!

A good choice, especially for an emergency situation, I was experiencing.
Pros:

Nice place to stay, right off the freeway, close to downtown SF.
Best staff interaction, especially with Chris. I made a terrible mistake in booking room. He was very very patient with me, as I tried to correct my mistake. Even assisted me with phone App, as he saw me struggle.
Being elderly and disabled, I'm glad I picked SF Central!
Cleaning Staff was nice and professional, provided extra blankets and coffee as requested.
Definitely would stay again!

Buen ubicación, falta de mantención
Pros:

No tuvimos nunca desayuno. Si lo había nunca se nos ofreció

Cons:

Falto de mantención. Las cañerías del agua caliente de la ducha sonaban por vibración al bañarse.-
La fotografía de la página de Booking es engañosa- Pafreciera que el edificio de 6 o 7 pisos es parte del hotel y no lo es. El hotel son solo las 3 plantas de abajo.-
