8/10 Good

Property is old, however beds were clean and bathrooms and shower was updated. In room carpets looked dirty. Staff was very welcoming and helpful navigating the neighborhood. It’s a great location to visit most sights by food. We enjoyed the location. Nice to see SF recovering post COVID. City felt much better in summer of 2025 vs last year
Thomas, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

For the location, the price was OK, but it's a bare bones place. Room was clean, and the bed and shower were decent, but they don't even have coffee.

2/10 Terrible

Bathroom is completely covered in black mold ! But the guy who seems to be the owner made up for it so i’m sorry to him for this review I don’t blame him. Goodnight!
Alexander, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

If you want an okay stay for a fair price at this location, it is a good choice. Don’t expect luxury, the bed was very comfortable tho. We came from Vegas and with a temperature difference of 20 degree celcius it felt very cold in the room. The staff was nice expect the young woman that work there on weekends. Was not helpful nor interested at all. All in all we recommend it when you look for a budget friendly option and not look for luxury

8/10 Good

Nice budget hotel in the heart of San Fran. Clean, basic and well-furnished room. Convenient to Union Square and other areas. Just be mindful of vagrants and definitely park in a safe garage.
Amir, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

No on place to eat . Room cold .No personal thermostat in order to heat my room. The whole building needed to be heated . Which they did with reservation. The day I arrived it was in the low 50"s and rainy no sunshine. room was on the cool side.

10/10 Excellent

Excellent location for a very reasonable price. A bare bones little hotel, but fully met our basic needs. Given the ratio of value to location, i give it an overall “excellent” rating.

Couple on short visit to sam fran

Need to make a special mention about Hansel , very knowledgeable about the area and wiling to chat , let us keep our room as we had a late flight and it was much appreciated , great location close to public transport and restaurants , room was a bit small so not much room for two large suitcases but otherwise ideal for our short trip

8/10 Good

Hansel at the front desk was very helpful with directions and places to eat. The Holtel is old but the price and area was nice.
Daniel, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice and quiet inside, safe. Locked and watched front door. Very loud outside all night but we expected most of it, no a/c so open window hear all- try just bathroom window and get fan as close to drown out. No space no table or counter, so tight if 3 people (2a 1k). Buy cold brew for frig cause no microwave. No wash cloths - so pack em. We are not the stay in room type and out 5-7am each day and it was great for that and we would stay again
