Small, but got the job done
My husband and I were excited to find this hotel IN the city at a decent price (even considering the additional cost for parking) because we were used to having to stay in a nearby town to get a nice hotel at a good rate. 
After reading some of the reviews that mentioned the small size of the rooms and the noise level I was a bit concerned, but what one person considers noisy or small is not always what another will consider noisy or small. But it was both - the room was the size of a shoebox and the little bar attached to the hotel was RIGHT downstairs from our room so the only way we were able to fall asleep was pure exhaustion from a long day combined with earplugs to block out all the sounds.
There was a view of a brick wall, no hair dryer, no coffee maker, if there was a vending machine I didn't see it, the bathroom (like the bedroom) was very small.
The place is quaint, the room was ok, just really small, the staff wasn't rude and the breakfast was bananas, dry store-bought danishes and cereal. But it was better than trying to hunt down a place to eat without having to move the car and it was included in the price, so...
Next time we travel to SF, this will be one of the last places I check for availability. It wasn't the worst place I've stayed, but the noise level, the sad breakfast, the lack of what seems to be standard amenities these days (hair dryer, coffee maker) and the small size of the room make me not want to stay there again.
