I had an incident with my initial room which the staff was unaware. However, PJ and Juliet were both apologetic and resolved the situation quickly and to my satisfaction. Both employees were professional and personable and made my stay something positive to remember. Looking forward to staying here again.

Built in 1925, this wonderful hotel is straight out of a Humphrey Bogart movie. I highly recommend it for a short overnight stay, as I. When attending a show. Very clean & well maintained, but not modernized. Don’t be offput by its single-front entrance. The rooms haven’t been upgraded, but they are clean and comfortable, obviously small but cozy. Clean bathrooms with a bathtub. The rooms have enough power outlets to charge all my gadgets. It’s located directly opposite the Curran theater on Geary Street, and just two blocks from Union Square. Parking is provided around the corner on Taylor by the Post-Taylor Garage. Very convenient. The hotel gives guests a coupon for $35 per 24 hours. You can’t get cheaper. A classic Diner next door serves breakfast. The Thais restaurant two doors down has a great dinner menu.

The room was in good condition. It was nothing fancy, just a room you would expect from a 3 star hotel. It was comfortable and in a good location. It felt safe and you could walk to close-by restaurants, shops, and Union Square. The Asian receptionist was very helpful, and a real sweetheart. I would stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
First of all, yes, I understood this was a budget hotel and yes, I kept my expectations low. I’ve stayed at many and never been as disappointed as I was here. The rancid smell is overwhelming as soon as you walk in the door and permeates throughout the hotel including the room. I found several bugs, and woke up very itchy all over my body. The subpar conditions really are not acceptable and certainly not worth the little you’ll save by staying here.

While the hotel was definitely ever bit budget they tell you;)--the staff was really warm and helpful. The key card reader had some issues, but the staff works well and knows the quirks. I just rested my head here a night on my way to up to Portland, and it was all I needed. Warm shower and a bed(even if it wasn't the fluffiest thing in the world), WiFi, and the experience was just fine. Do be aware you hear street noise just outside, but my night actually wasn't bad for that.

Full disclosure, I only stayed here because every other room in the city was over $1k per night because of a conference. Location was convenient. Spartan. No ice, no fridge, no safe. To its credit, the bathroom and shower were clean and comfortable. The shower had great pressure and hot water. The bed was hard as a rock, no side sleeping possible. Noway could 2 people fit in my “petit” room. The pull-down “desk” was barely big enough for my laptop.
