Horrible location, clean but smelly room!
Pros:

Staff members were nice although charged me $5 to keep my luggage safe for a few hours.

Cons:

The location is next to a homeless shelter and you have a crowd of homeless people at the entrance of the building usually. If you have never seen homeless of SF be prepared. My most complaint was the noise and the smell in the room coming from a bakery/factory in front of the window. I managed to sleep through it but I hated it.

Perfect in a pinch!
Pros:

Staff was wonderful. My room was a little bit delayed getting ready, but the fix was very quick. I liked that the room was safely away from the main areas. It's as clean as 100 year old buildings can be in SF. Some minor spots of concern, but good air quality, no mold, etc. Its the best stay than any hotel you can get on 6th, certainly. Great for the price and in a pinch, as I had to reassign last minute. While the location isn't great, it's only a few steps away from Market, so as long as you use Market and not continue going down 6th to get anywhere, it's safe.

Cons:

6th Street has the homeless shelter, which makes it the street and onward for a lot of homeless to congregate. As long as you're polite and mind your own business, they mind their own business as well. But as a result, nights are noisy, and the area is concerning.

If you need a decent priced room and are willing to brave it
Pros:

Needed a place to stay that was reasonably priced. Staff was great and the room and facilities were clean, well lit, and maintained.

Cons:

The drug addled vagrants who were encamped outside the door was not a good situation. Rooms are dorm style which is alright if you’re used to that setup. No A/C and because of the vagrants there was non-stop sirens, music, and shouting from the street four stories below.

Pros:

Excellent value for money.
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option, this place is perfect. Everything was clean, quiet, and comfortable — exactly what you need for a pleasant stay

Cons:

There are many homeless people in the area, but this is clearly a city-wide issue, not related to the hotel itself. The responsibility lies with the local authorities, not the property

Nie najlepsze wspomnienia.
Cons:

1. Lokalizacja - nie jest to najbezpieczniejsze miejsce (w okolicy dużo bezdomnych i narkomanów)
2. Brak gorącej wody - letnia to maks na co można liczyć
3. Karaluch z rana na ścianie w toalecie
4. Krzyki na ulicy o 3 rano
