Liked: Cheap and cheerful; a little scruffy round the edges but you could clearly see a very characteristic building beyond this. Also very central.

Disliked: A little noisy. A very meagre "breakfast". Check in took 30 minutes due to over cautious proprietor.

Liked: The location is good, although it is a little too close to The Tenderloin area, which can be a bit sketchy at night. Good value for the money you pay, and it's a good place to stay if you're just looking for a place to sleep for a few nights.

Disliked: The rooms have thin walls, so noices from other rooms (or the bathroom...) are easily heard through the walls. The breakfast was not very filling.

Liked: It is very close to central San Francisco. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

Disliked: The room was a bit damp and cool which was very uncomfortable as I had a cold when I came to San Francisco. When pointing this out to the staff they arranged for a heater. That was very friendly and the rest of my stay was nice.

Liked: Value for money. For such a cheap price, its exactly what you'd expect. Fine for one night. Friendly staff.

Disliked: Quite loud. Could hear the people upstairs moving, every noise from the bathroom across the hall and the mini fridge hummed loudly all night. The restrooms were far from great. Pillows were few and puny.

Disliked: When I booked I didn't realize it had a shared bathroom. Many of the rooms were renovated, but the inexpensive rooms were pretty rough. In particular, the bed was not very comfy.
