4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 May 2013 NEW

I can honestly say I was extremely concerned with this hotel after reading reviews on trip adviser. Unfortunately there are quite a few homeless people in the area but if you walk 25 metres to the left you are in the touristy areas and you wouldn't know. With that said though the homeless didn't bother any of our group. I... More

I stayed five nights for a conference in town. Very well done renovated building. Refrigerator, coffee maker, flat screen TV, huge bath tub that you can soak in, wonderful rain shower shower head, plenty of clean fluffy towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner, blow dryer, free coffee/tea in the mornings and free wine tastings each evening. I never saw any of the... More

This was our first visit to San Francisco and it was only for one night, so the price of the hotel was great.

Wonderful stay. We were in town for a conference and this was one of the more affordable options in the area. Previous reviews were spot on. The area can be a little sketch at times but honestly we were never bothered by anyone. If you use the entrance through the lot you avoid the corner where there can be groups... More

We had our wedding guests stay here and we did as well for a night. The hotel is updated and the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.

This hotel gets a bad rap in some reviews because of the nasty corner location right on the edge of the Tenderloin, a truly depressing section of SF that is right next to the main tourist center of Union Square. But for me, it's a perfect location because it's only 1 block from BART (which means no taxis necessary from... More

Great hotel, great service, very clean and friendly. Location was not ideal and you could not get any sleep due to the noise outside. It was constantly very very loud and you could not walk I the hotel without 10 crackheads bums bothering you

It's not fair to give this hotel a bad review because the hotel itself and the staff were very good. The woman at the front desk was especially helpful with check in, to restaurant suggestions, and giving us a guide to how to get around. The room was decent, clean, warm enough, felt safe.
