The first person who was there was a bit rude but the night one was so much nicer. We were told we would be getting a king size bed but it was a queen. The room wasn’t the most well kept either

I would definitely stay here again. The property was very clean and conveniently located near the Powell bart station. There was a ton of food options nearby, I recommend Central Cafe and Hinodeya Ramen. The AC unit and thin walls were my only issues. Definitely an old SF boutique style hotel which is what I have learned to expect and enjoy when visiting the city!

Oh boy where to start. To begin with, you are in San Francisco which right now it's -100 stars. You are greeted with one way streets and homeless or better yet, the unhoused.... They have a small parking under the hotel that is super dangerous getting in and out and it's $50 a day to park there. So if you thought you were saving money, you are not. Now let's move to the inside. Every thing is old and the theme is loose. The most amazing thing is the shower. Yes, the shower. The waters comes in a never ending cycle of cold, warm, warmer, hot, warmer, warm, cold and so on. So you have to time what you are washing. There is a muggy old smell inside. First time and last time.

The hotel was nice for being an older hotel, you could tell there was some history there. When I arrived Jamil (sorry if I spelled that wrong) was great, friendly and he answered all my questions and was helpful and informative.
