A good location at a...

Liked: The room is a good size with the private bathroom. The bay window overlooking the street was very nice. The concierge warned me about ambient street noise but that's part of the charm. The heater worked well and the bathroom was the most modern part of the room! The Hotel's placement is pretty ideal with a major grocery store just down the street and a Walgreens directly across. The famous Castro District is a block away with pleasant walking past some shops and dining. Overall I had a great stay!
Disliked: Well what I didn't like falls into a very short list! A standard key instead of a key card is a little outdated, but didn't cause me any grief. The door itself is the real issue. It sits too low and drags on the carpet making it difficult to open and close. In addition, the door isn't really secured unless you lock the door. The TV wasn't the easiest to turn on or control. Thankfully I didn't need the TV on this trip. The street parking is a slight challenge with the city's egregious, nightly, street cleaning, but the concierge offered helpful advice with this. I think I was also lucky staying through the weekend. Lastly the walls are a little thin, but hey, it's an old walk-up building in San Francisco...I was not expecting anything super modern to begin with.

Disappointing

Liked: The bathroom was very nice with an upgraded mirror and shower. The location and price were strong for San Francisco.
Disliked: The bedroom had an odd smell to it - the curtains and bed were worn out and seemingly dirty. The carpet was stained in various places. The window in the room wouldn't close so the room would get particularly cold each night (the bright side here was leaving the window open masked the smell a bit) - additionally all the noise on market street was especially loud. It was cheap for San Francisco and right on market street, but I guess my expectations were a little higher for the place itself.

Good solely for brief stay.

Liked: Overall a reasonable value, the room was neat and clean.
Disliked: The bed lamp did not work. No telephone in room, in case I needed to get help from the staff. I was worried about my own safety: because another guest might have made a duplicate of my room key; perhaps installing security cameras would alleviate this concern.

Except for the bed everything...

Liked: The remodeled bathroom was great.
Disliked: The mattress was super lumpy and the comforter and pillows smelled like body odor

Overall a great nights stay...

Liked: The location and neighborhood
Disliked: noise of traffic but it is San Francisco so thats to be expected.

It was ok!

Liked: The front desk staff was helpful and cheerful! Unfortunately, no breakfast! Covid so that's understandable!
Disliked: The building is probably old, but needs serious redone of floors. Every step had a sound and creeked! The drapes should be replaced with shades and the bed ccover should be simple and retro! Since no breakfast is served they should have a mini fridge and microwave!
