I stayed in 3 other cheaply priced places in San Francisco during my recent visit.  This was by far the best of the bunch - it was also the most expsnsive, but not by much.

The Tenderloin is not a great area, but this hotel is close to Market Street and the BART & MUNI metro, buses and streetcars.  There is a 24hour reception to buzz you in so security from the street is good.  Once inside yiu wil notice that the floor tiles look new and the paintwork has in fact been recently painted - nit a great paint job, but it has been done and so looks fresh and clean,  Have a look at other places and you would understand what I mean.

I found the desk staff very helpful - particularly as they allowed me to access my check-in document and print it - my own laptop having died earlier in the week.

Whilst I would have preferred more in the way of shower and restroom facilties, I never had to queue, and they were clean and tiled quite recently/  Again compared to where else I stayed, this place was a palace.

Would I stay here again?  Yes I would - I now know just how expensive rental property is in San Francisco ( 1 bedroom flat starting around $2,500 a month) so on that basis this is a fair value.

Again, for those giving a lower rating - San Franscisco is the most expensive city in the US - so everything then becomes relative.  For the amount being asked, this is good value.

Basic, but the owners have put in an effort here

Although the hotel is near Union square, it is located in the tenderloin district which is the ghetto of San Francisco. There were often gangs and homeless people outside of the hotel lobby...
The shared shower was dirty and had bugs in it. The room was very hot. 
You get what you pay for!

Scary neighbourhood & dirty facilities 

This place was horrible. Our room smelled like curry food especially in the bathroom. There was no fitted sheet on the bed. The bathroom curtain was covered in mildew. The towels had wholes in the middle of them because they were so worn out. There was hardly any toilet paper on the roll and no extra roll in our room. I am not usually a high maintenance person but this place was so gross. I had to shower with my flip flops on. The bed wasn't comfortable either. I asked the man at the front desk to come and look at the room, which was literally 10 feet away from his desk and he said he couldn't. I wanted him to see how disgusting the room was and if that was how they clean all their rooms. There are homeless people everywhere outside and they stay up and make noise until about 6am. We were suppose to stay 3 nights but could only make ourselves stay 1, and that was only because we were too tired from travelling to find a new place that night. Ended up spending a little extra and staying a block from Fisherman's warf. So worth it!!

Listen to the reviews!!

This is probably the worst place I have ever stayed, it is in the most undesirable and unsafe area. For the price of the stay you would think you were staying somewhere fairly reasonable but sadly this was not the case! There were several shady characters standing outside of the door into the hotel blocking our way in and when inside we could hear screams from the street, needless to say we got no sleep here. I cannot even put into words how bad it was. But if you feel like risking your life go and stay here if not go as far away as possible!!

Do not stay here

Avoid this place.  The immediate surrounding area is pretty undesirable. The hotel itself is approached by going up a very steep set of stairs (no lifts available) to "reception" and then more stairs to the room. The toilet hadn't been flushed by the previous tenant let alone cleaned by the staff, the shower had hairs on the tiles and the bed linen appeared not to have been changed. Stayed one night (after a 13 hour flight) and immediately cancelled all other nights booked there.
