More of a hostel
The location is great and the staff is friendly. However, those two points do not outweigh how uncomfortable it is to stay here.
I opted for a deluxe queen room with the private bath. The room is very small but that's ok, I knew that going in.
The bathroom is tiny as well, which would have been ok if it included a functional sink area to accomplish basic things like brushing one's teeth or shaving. The sink is the size of an office telephone, with a glass shelf directly above it. The shelf makes it impossible to lean down to rinse, etc without bumping your head into it. The height of the sink is also very low. Incredibly uncomfortable for a person of my height - and I'm not even that tall at 6'1. The bathroom sink i would say is the worst i've ever experienced in my business travels. Just a horribly uncomfortable experience.
With the exception of the bathroom window, the windows do not open in the room! I was there when the temps hit the 80s in San Francisco. There's no AC! The room got incredibly stuffy and humid. There is zero circulation of air going through the room making it very difficult to sleep.
The noise. Oh the noise. There is loud screeching noise, which lasts a full minute whenever someone their toilet. It's very, very loud and obnoxious. Like a tea kettle, which is not very pleasant. Also, God forbid you do open the bathroom window on the floor i was on - the 3rd. You hear the lovely sounds of construction, taxi whistles from neighboring hotels, corn horns. All sounding like they are in your room.
I rarely write reviews but really felt like i needed to warn potential visitors. This place was just horrible.
