The concierge staff was very helpful & polite. Unfortunately the elevator were not working so our entry & exit procedure was not so great. Getting assistance up the stairs was helpful but doesn't exactly make up for it. A message warning us of this, even if it was an hour before our arrival would have helped. The format of the hotel is interesting with an internal atrium. The location is convenient. It is a mediocre yet adequate accomodation.

Cockroach scuttling around in the bathroom when we arrived - yuck! Lots of noise outside in the morning; didn't look out the window to see the source but be aware this is a noisy urban environment.

Okay stay.
The room was okay, price reasonable. The gentleman when we was helpful and great. The elevator wasn’t working, room on second floor, he offered to help with luggage. Shower was tricky because of handle going wrong direction. Shower didn’t have any pressure. Parking lot is confined and hard to navigate.

Nice hotel for the money. I did move to the backside of the building because of the noise from the street on the front side. One of the shower curtains was in need of replacement. Otherwise, it was a nice place.

Overnight stay after late flight
Clean and safe-feeling hotel, near airport. Be aware, no hotel shuttle. Friendly, helpful staff. Clean room and facilities with a quaint, San Francisco flair. 24H desk service - appreciated after a late-night flight arrival. My son rates the shower head a 10 out of 10. I’d stay here again.

My go-to hotel!
This no must no fuss place is my favorite when I have to stay overnight for SFO. Good size rooms and a lot of amenities within blocks - restaurants, taco trucks, liquor store, and a groovy downtown in San Bruno if you go a couple more blocks. I always try to get the third floor because there are great city views with the mountains on one side and the bay on the other. Semi-secure parking underneath the building, very busy street. Hard to beat rate and friendly staff. Works for me! 😀
