Lots of homeless people on streets in that area… but once you’re in the building it feels safe. Great and interesting rooms and decor… each room is different and each time I’ve stayed I’ve had a whole different experience. I like it and gooseberries (the restaurant downstairs.) is amazing!

It's a great location. Plenty of bars and restaurants you can walk to. It's a quirky space with excellent views. Lots of windows. It can get a little hot in the afternoon. Just shut some of the blinds and the AC will catch up. The bed was comfy. The stairs up to the bed took a little time to get use to.

I don’t say this often, but staying here genuinely elevated my stay in Hillcrest. It was wondering to be within walking distance to numerous restaurants and clubs. The facility felt safe and well maintained. Despite This being my first self-checkin experience, the hotel team made everything flawless. Thank you for the wonderful stay! I hope to be back soon.

Support staff was fine, but the room was poor with cold cement floors and the HVAC system needed multiple trips by staff to get it working. Sink faucet was loose and so was the toilet. I would not stay there again.
