I left after being there for 1 hour. There was bloodstains all over the carpet and screaming and yelling. The sketchiest and dirtiest hotel I have ever been to. did not offer any refunds for the biohazards in my room, and to top it off my deadbolt on my door didn’t work. As a women staying alone this is unacceptable and unsafe.

This was an appalling experience to say the least. To begin, this is in a terrible area riddled with crime and drug use across the streets. Secondly, the elevator is archaic, slow, and tiny. The worst part, though, was the room. It was filthy, with stains on the drapes and shower floor. And the bed sheets made us itchy all night---so much so that we had to use our own towels and clothes as blankets to minimize the itch. I called the front desk multiple times at 11 PM, and nobody answered. Spare yourselves the trouble and listen to the reviews. I made a mistake and trusted their endless replies about improving the place and taking customer feedback seriously. It is not worth your health, sanity, or money.

Everything was clean, functional; staff was polite and helpful. Excellent location for downtown. Good value for one or two evenings. The hotel itself could be a little old if you're aiming for fancy.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean, the staff was friendly and professional. My only big issue is that there is no A/C or fan in the room (fan would be fine for SF) - and the old heater/furnace is REALLY noisy (you can't really turn it off) - it woke me up a lot at night. Other than that everything was fine and I will most likely stay here again.

Zachary

Disliked: Cleanliness
I really don’t have high expectations for hotel rooms. I just need a place to lay my head down and sleep. Unfortunately, this was not the place for that. These rooms use an old time radiator for their heating system and it bangs all night. Whether it’s on or off, it is making an absurd amount of noise. Barely got any sleep on a night when I could have used it. In addition, there are other inconveniences, including a toilet that does not flush entirely, a hotel phone at his nonfunctional, and only one outlet in the entire room. Overall you can tell there is no attentive care given to the room. I just hope they care enough to clean it well but doubt that is the case based on my experience.
