Uncomfortable stay
Overestimated advertised by Hotels.com. 1 Breakfast included- only coffee and a packed pastry. 2. Requested for non- smoking room, but given to me really smoking embedded room 3 the carpet was really unclean 4. Very noisy even during the mid night 5. The entrance was so small door and the front desk was isolated with metal fence for their protection 6. So many flies in the room and public area I got the respiratory infection during 3 nights stay

Yay! Safety!
Love this hotel!! This hotel is in the most convenient location, and it even has protected, and covered, parking free with the reservation!! Just a free parking alone is worth the stay !! But honestly I got to tell you about the rooms, because that's what we're here for right? Before they started renovating the rooms were okay, but now that they have renovated most of the rooms, this place is top notch! The rooms are very clean, for the first time ever. I did feel like I needed to bring my own bedding, especially because they notably wash everything, but they also clean the pillows! Pillows! Imagine That! It's such a wonderful feeling checking into a hotel that keeps my car safe and protected with cameras and also from the rain, but also having a wonderful feeling of safety when I just simply lay my head down on a freaking pillow that's not mine! You guys/gals/other... I'm telling you... This is the place! If you want to make sure that you, your family, and even your CAR, is feeling safe? Come to San Francisco Inn. If you worry about seeing it all, this hotels convenient location will help with this. If you want you're clothes and business suit to be hung or folded and put into nice drawers? Gotta stay here. Need coffee? This hotel provides that in your room with a fridge AND microwave! Ever since COVID, not a single hotel provides breakfast... Except for San Francisco Inn! They still have that for sure! And seriously.... WALK IN SHOWERS! NOT that disgusting bathtub BS!!

Cheap. That's what you get tho.
Door didn't dead lock. Door Frame in repair process. Wifi's so far away from the room I was in, didn't work. Sat TV didn't have a remote. Took a day or two to have the guys bring me one. RANDOM PERSON KNOCKED ON MY HOTEL DOOR AT 11PM my last night. Keep in mind, you have to have a key to get into the main staircase to get to the room. Bro if you have something going on, give your correct room number and meet them outside of the space. Not their fault but... It' ain't quiet ever. Police, loud cars, helicopters, screaming people. But look, it's cheap and in the location I wanted to be in to see a show. That's what you get. If you can deal with all the above, great place to crash. The guys doing the hotel service were good, not their fault for all the stuff.

A Hidden Gem of San Francisco
I cannot praise this place enough. I happened upon it while frantically scouring Hotels.com after my previous reservation had fallen through during the APEC conference weekend and I’m so glad I did. My stress was immediately relieved when they were able to accommodate an early check-in. It’s an unassuming hotel in the Soma District of San Francisco, so you really couldn’t ask for a better central location. The hotel consist of two neighboring buildings. Once I got into the room I fell in love. I really liked the layout as well as the furniture. There are several dressers and drawers for organization along with plenty of counter-space, which is rare feature in most hotels that I particularly appreciate. Some of the rooms even have jetted bathtubs that are nice and deep like a hot tub. It’s not just the rooms that makes this place so great however, but the staff. Mohammed , Safa and Faifal are not only consistently accommodating, but kind, exceptionally professional and all around Good guys. Whether it be a day or graveyard shift, they are always there to fulfill any request and go above and beyond their job expectation to meet the needs of their guests. Again I cannot overstate How much I appreciate these guys and the positive impact they’ve had on every one of my stays. The housekeeping is also genuinely very sweet, patient and attentive. This has become my go to place for extended stays. They beat every other hotel in the city, by their dedicated attention to detail.

I understand that they are remodeling and somethings are not finished. But the sink was lose, the shower door handle was lose, there was a screw poking out of the floor, the phone didn't work and there is so many small things to bring up I don't have the effort to express.

Great location but...
Hotel is situated in a great location. Parking is very limited. And parking spots are very small, good luck not hitting another car or wall ride if you have an SUV. Compact cars will be ok. The room i was in is very outdated. It had like a 70s vibe that hasn't been kept up. It also smelled like cigarettes. Wonder if they vacuum the floors? Bed was comfortable.

The #1 consideration for me was free parking. This was one of only three hotels in the whole SoMa area that offered free parking. The number of spaces was very limited, but there was one available for me, so I was satisfied. Unfortunately, some trash materialized behind my car overnight) but I don't think that was the hotel's fault. That's the reason for my "poor" rating for the surrounding area.
