    Area is not the nicest, some fellow guest had a huge argument while we were there at night that went on for over an hour, and could be heard in all the rooms, was a bit disruptive and felt uncomfortable. Exterior of the place could do with an upgrade

    staff at desk were very helpful, gave us a free room upgrade and the room was very nice and clean

    Though parking was provided, we did have to pay a surprising fee of $30 per night. The parking did have cameras but was opened to the streets, I was honestly afraid my car was going to be broken into or something. The room was clean-ish. The bathroom unfortunately didn’t have a brush to clean up after ourselves and the floor creaked a little.

    The location was perfect, smack dab in the middle of San Fran. We were able to walk to most public transport in about 10 minutes. The staff was friendly and was able to give us pointers to nearest locations such as public transport, clubs and others . Although right next to a busy street, you can hardly tell in the room itself. If we had been bothered, SoMa had already provided earplugs. There were several locks on the door and the doors to the elevator and stairwell were only able to be opened by the keycard, which helped us feel a little more safe.

    No receipt upon check out. I don’t use my credit card but I used it because they ask for one to check in and for some reason fraud started happening after couple of hours after I used it there.

    It was easy to reserve and clean room for the most part.

    The location. The facility is good, but we were woken up by some interesting people pretty early, in the parking lot... the owner did the best he could to relieve the problem but couldn't do much. Overall for the price, staff and how clean it was the made up for it.

    Clean, comfortable beds. Friendly staff.

    The outside of the property definitely could use more upkeep. Lots of garbage flowing through the parking area. I’ve never quite experienced staff at a property so discouraging and unwelcoming to complete stay at their property.

    The rooms were very clean and seemed to have been updated recently.

    The neighborhood feels pretty sketchy - especially on 9th Street. It's on the corner of 9th and Mission. If walking, we suggest getting there by walking on 7th or 8th, and then Mission to the Inn, rather than walking on 9th St. Also, our room was very loud, which was maybe just bad luck. We were next to the stairs and elevator. There was a group of guests in the room above us that talked loudly while making repeated trips up and down the stairs every half hour or so (perhaps to smoke?). Plus, the floor in their room (above us) squeaked loudly. I know that a hotel/motel can't always control over their guests. However, I had requested the upper floor when I made the reservation over 2 months prior to our stay, but we were not put on the upper floor (which would have helped with the noise level). Our situation required us to stay close to where our appointment was, as inexpensively as possible. It still seemed pretty expensive - but it was downtown San Francisco, And, as I said, the inside of the room itself was nicer than what the neighborhood or exterior seemed. So, a mixed bag.

    This review is difficult. We had to fly to San Francisco for a visa application appointment, and were on a tight budget in a very expensive city, and I realize that you get what you pay for. This is a very basic 60's-ish motel. No amenities other than what was in the room. The room itself was actually ok - updated bathroom was clean, the bed comfortable enough, had a table to work at, microwave, mini-fridge. The blanket was the thinnest blanket I have ever seen. It would have been nice to have a thicker blanket or an extra blanket. It was a fairly convenient walk from the BART station and bus lines on Market St.

    Great location if you're going to the Bill Graham auditorium. A quick walk to the venue. Staff made check in/out very easy! They do only accept credit cards, which is standard. Parking in their lot is $30 a day and a huge relief from the headache of finding safe parking in SF.

    This location in downtown SF is extremely unsafe. Fentanyl addicts have invaded this area. Doesn't matter day or night, it's sadly full of homelessness. I always felt very unsafe and was very alert walking to the motel. They charge $30 for parking in site per day. The parking is completely accesible from the street and there's no security. If you park here, DON'T leave any of your belongings in your vehicle. SF has a very high rate of car break-ins. Room was very dusty, not clean. Fridge was broken. Pictures look way fancier and well-lit than the actual rooms.

    They provide towels, shampoo and body gel. Hard to find anything else for this price.

    The elevator is terrible. The housekeeper has her young female child knocking on doors asking if anything is needed which is super irresponsible and unsafe.

    The staff was funny and friendly. The hotel was perfect distance from Market Street. Paid parking on grounds was useful.
