Neighborhood is not the greatest but no threat or noise

Pros:

Not much to like except the location and shower water pressure was good.

Cons:

Too noisy, room above with people stomping all night was irritating, carpets felt dirty, bathroom needs shade on window.

Great value.
Pros:

The place was close to work and very clean (cleaned every day, smelled well). Very nice delicate colors, non-tiring design: I chose it for that reason, too. The breakfast is minimalistic but there is a nice cafe across the street. Tea and coffee is available all day and evening. Exactly what I needed for my trip.

Cons:

The building is old and floor in places is slightly uneven, but all the interior paint and carpets are new.

A place to sleep while in the Bay area.
Pros:

I don't consider a bagel and coffee breakfast. There wasn't even butter or jam for the bagel. The breakfast bar was very disappointing.

Cons:

A very loud room next door the first night that kept me awake until 2:30am. The "breakfast" offerings.
