Appallingly bad. I arrived with 2 of my work colleagues, one of whom has mobility issues. No elevator, and our rooms were on the third floor. I asked if there was a room on a lower floor and was told no. We went to dinner and returned to find the bed in my room was covered in ants. Gross. I went back downstairs to the front desk and asked to be moved and they moved me to another room... on the second floor. The building rattled whenever the muni passed, and around 2:15 in the morning, a couple in an adjacent room started arguing loudly, which continued until 4:45 in the morning. The walls were thin and it was impossible to sleep. The front desk was unwilling to ask them to keep it down. All 3 of our rooms were freezing with iffy heaters (the one in my second room was visibly broken), and one of my colleagues reported that the TV came on randomly 3 times in the night, waking him up. Aside from being in a good location, there is nothing positive to report about our stay. Would not recommend.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Pros: Walkable to beach and park. Free parking. Good price. Huge room. Comfy mattress and sheets. Conditioner provided in shower. Refrigerator and microwave. Cons: Biggest problem was the noise level. Older building with single paned windows located next to trolly line and above pub. Lots of traffic noise (and talkative drunks on F & Sa). Needed more furniture in huge room (sitting chairs or table would be nice, wall mirror so we don’t fight over tiny mirror in bathroom, luggage racks, and hangars are all needed). No central heat or cooling (though was not a problem for us). Pillows were unusually overstuffed. Bring: earplugs, eye mask, & your own pillow.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pros: price, onsite parking, quick check in, huge room, mattress comfort, fast hot water, close to beach. Cons: quite noisy all day long - trolley car, vehicle traffic, and talkative bar patrons make it hard to sleep. No heat or air conditioning (not needed on this trip fortunately). The room needs a seating area, more chairs, a mirror, luggage racks, and hangars for closet. (insulated windows for noise and temperature control would also be nice)

Quick one-night stay

When we arrived there was plenty of parking. We had to wait a few minutes for someone to arrive at the front desk but then check in was quick and easy. The room was nothing special but plenty comfortable. The price was reasonable so I would definitely stay again.

I never stayed here. I booked a night and was called by the front office telling me my room was directly above a bar. Since I have a young baby, that was unacceptable and was told they’d cancel my room. It was never cancelled and I was charged anyway! DONT TRUST THIS PLACE!

Ok for 1 night

The room was ok. Although flooring was wonky and the toilet was dirty as soon as we go there (which was disgusting) the walk to eateries was nice and coffee shop near by is a must. Overall location needs to stop making surface work and fix the parts that make it not so great.

Adequate for the price.

Great area near the beach and Golden Gate Park. The front desk was very friendly and came to our room to help explain how to use the TV with two remotes. The bed was comfortable. The hotel is old. The bathroom was dirty. Had a very strong smell of cleaning products that was very unpleasant and never went away. Would not want to stay more than one night.

There are several bad reviews of this property but I just rented a room there and the staff was friendly, room was clean, and the place was decent. It’s also one block away from the ocean. It’s not luxurious but it definitely deserves a try.
