Terrible place in the middle of tweaker city. if you want to defend your life from needles and filth then please come and stay here. Disgusting place. A pile of ash after burning it would be worth more then 1 night stay
TV didn’t work, no hot water or toilet paper, no breakfast which was one of the deciding factors for my stay and I was confronted by an unhomed person white trying to get into the lobby.
Do not stay here. No staff. Exposed wiring in room. No working smoke detector. Bloody sheets. No towels. No toilet paper. Screaming people outside our windows all night (windows did not close). I feared for the safety of my family. Graffiti on the walls in the room. I would not recommend anyone ever staying here.
Please please please give this place a chance! The family that owns this is absolutely amazing, and they do the best they can to keep the street outside clean and the guests comfortable. Knowing everything I know, I would stay here again, no doubt!
DO NOT STAY HERE. place is disgusting, very loud, not a great area.

You get what you pay for. Money was tight for me. If you a heavy sleeper and don’t wake up to the receptionist arguing with the homeless at 3am that are right outside the hotel and just for a place to sleep and completely ok people under the influence coming in you should come here. I grew up in that kind of environment so it’s whatever to me. Be warm the reception wakes up at 11am in the back, so if you need to check out early chances are he won’t be there.
I was very surprised by the price of the Bay Hotel because of the location and the easy access to restaurants and transportation to the whole San Francisco area.
Unfortunately, the entrance of the hotel is completely surrounded by the local homeless and a drug users crowd that interacts in the 16th BART station.
Fortunately there are a daily police scheduled 24hs to make you feel secure.
The hotel is very clean and the staff is cordial and extremely friend.
Oli and her husband are excellent on sharing all information and making your stay a really pleasurable.
The room are clean up on a daily business and a set of towels are provided as well.
I was quite impressed of how they keep every floor clean and coffee are provided daily and a microwave is available to all on the reception.
The bedrooms are small but clean with a brand new TV provided with cable and good WiFi!
The bathrooms are shared but it’s again impressive CLEAN!
I really would like to emphasize that they rooms are pretty quite during the evening s.
My husband and I plan on return to San Francisco more often and we plan on staying o this hotel again because we loved the easy access to transportation and walk distance to restaurants, bars, pizza, you name it!
