I decided to book , because the reviews were saying that was a good property. I don’t if I got a terrible room, but my experience was horrible. Cons: 1- Uncomfortable beds. The worst bed, I think the floor it’s was more comfortable. 2- The area around the property has a lot homeless people ( That it’s not the issue ), you can hear the gunfire, people fighting outside. I stay for two days, one of the days it’s was 4 pm and a man was hitting the hotel walls with a metal bar and fighting. Not a safe place. 3- The staff doesn’t care, they are rude. Pros : 1- Has parking 2- You need the key to go up in the elevator ( that it’s a must since the location it’s a dangerous place. 3- it’s close to a lot places. I would not recommend. I have been in hotels that were cheap than this one , with better quality. I wish I had pay more and stay in some place else.

The odor of pine sol (cleaning chemical) was too strong in the building (you may get irritated by it if you have sensitive respiratory system). No cold or hot water dispenser was provided but the front does provide hot water for you if you bring your water with you. The neighbors was a bit sketchy. Overall an ordinary stay.

Overbooked

I'd love to be able to review Cathedral Hill Hotel, but I can't. I showed up to check in, they told me they were overbooked, and sent me to a sister property nearby (Rodeway Inn) which was one of the worst hotel experiences I've had. Spartan room, uncomfortable bed, TV was broken, no lamps, and hotel staff started loudly rebuilding a door frame right across from our room before 9am.

Overbooked and sent us to a non pet friendly hotel

Overbooked us and sent us to a different hotel. We had a non service dog with us that was bot allowed at the "equivalent " hotel. Caused lots of stress and potential extra fees as the second hotel did not want us to stay.

Good stay

My room was clean, clean sheets and pillow cases, shower was clean with good water pressure. Check in was quick, location was great, small grocery store was across street. I was so tired from my day’s activities that I slept all night.

The area around the hotel is a little bit sketchy with high poverty and scenery that I would rather not encounter however, I still felt really safe and the urban playground right around the corner made it worthwhile as my kids really enjoyed it

Extremely clean room

Rooms were extremely clean with modern bedding. Any essentials we needed were promptly handed out to us. I love the fact that you have to have a room key to use the street level elevator. No one that's not staying can get in at all. I wish the room had a microwave and a coffee maker. We had to leave leftovers to be thrown away with no way to heat them up. At least there is a fridge. NOT the hotel's fault but this is just a very dirty part of town. Lots of homeless walking the streets. Surprising since it's within walking distance from Union Square with it's high end shops and motels. I still felt safe walking as they don't bother you. This is a city problem, not the motel! The underground garage and hallways are well lit. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Great room for the price.

The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious. There was a refrigerator, but it was on the floor. The showerhead gave a great spray and the water was nice and warm. The bathroom exhaust looked nice but didnt work. I parked in the lower level parking, but the key card would not work. I hadcto walk back up the way that i had driven down. The parking area smelled like sewer.

Contrary to online images this hotel is directly in the middle of the city and as such is prone to all the downfalls of said location. The parking lot is not secured in any way and while we were there at least 4 cars were broken into including one of our party's. They smashed in the windows and rummaged through the cars. Police said it is a high crime area. Although the neighborhood is run down and the outside smells of urine and waste the facilities themselves are clean and spacious. Our room was fine but due to the incident we decided to go to another hotel. The management was exceptional and understanding as they felt bad that we had been broken into. They refunded our room fee without question and were very accomodating. It was unfortunate that the area is so bad because the staff is terrific and I'm assuming the company policies support them.
