Overall it wasn't THAT bad for a quick low cost option. However, it wasn't as close to Union Square as I thought and def some scary folks hanging out side at night in the area (but thats more of an SF thing now a days). Staff was friendly and room itself was clean. hallways and walls looked dated but again, this is what I paid for.

The Tilden is a good place to stay, nice rooms and good location. The only problem is that they had loud music playing one night, from 10 pm until after 2 am and again the next morning. Not sure why, but it made what was an otherwise pleasant stay quite the opposite.

5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We stayed at the Tilden Hotel while waiting to move into our new apartment, and the experience absolutely deserves five stars. The front desk clerk who checked us in was incredibly kind and welcoming—she truly provided exceptional customer service and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Our king room was extremely comfortable, clean, and exactly what we needed during this transitional time. After a long and stressful moving process, it was such a relief to stay somewhere that felt relaxing and well-run. Thank you to the staff at the Tilden Hotel for making our stay so pleasant. We truly appreciated the hospitality!
