for the price it is a good option, since it has a good location and overall has everythign I need. Just make sure you understand what room you pay for because last time I made the mistake of asking for a room with no bathroom. Even though the location is centric at night it can become sketchy. I had a person follow me inside the hotel but the staff was very helpful and accompanied to my room and dealt with it. Just be careful of the surroundings and make sure to let the staff know if you see something is off.

This is one of the best quality/position hotel you can find in San Francisco. Well managed, clean with 24h reception. Some rooms have bathroom, some no but the price is consequent. The shared bathrooms are very small but well maintained. Other hotels offer more fancy rooms, but I recommend The Mosser if you are on a budget.

The hotel is in the center of the city. Access to all public transportation options, BART, metro/muni, and bus. The room was clean and comfortable. I thought that I would be more bothered sharing a bathroom and shower, but I never had to wait for either. The third floor shower has great water pressure. The staff/service were exceptional. I asked to switch rooms as mine was facing an alley and was too warm for my liking. To my surprise, they found me a new room that was much cooler and I spent the rest of my stay in bliss!! Thanks so much to the staff.

Liked: Cleanliness
the room was small with the room's only window looking out to a skylight cover on floor down and brick walls. Inside the furniture looked old with varnish worn off the wood bed frame. The private bath was odd with the sink in the main room, but the toilet and shower were in another. The sink had hot water, but the shower had none. I even let it run for a few minutes, hoping it was just the old pipes taking longer. But I never got it to give even warm water. the staff was nice enough, but not really friendly or going out of their way at all. The one elevator to the ground floor can take forever. Sad thing is I used to love this hotel. It used to be quirky eclectic, now it just seemed worn.
