10/10 Exceptional

Nice room under $200.
Richard, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Old cosy hotel

Very central near the SF city “train” , very polite and nice staff, and the cosy diner Davis where you feel welcome 🙏 All is like this in the 1970, the beds are little tired, but if you need a cheap, central vintage hotel to stay while you explore San Francisco and don’t mind the view directly into a gray concrete wall this is a acceptable hotel
Hans Thomas, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good bargain

Basic but comfortable. On a safe but rough block in area with many hotels.
