Hoteller i San Francisco i nærheden af U.S. Mint

Our friends live on Grove Street, so the price and location were perfect. The hotel has history (a gold rush rooming house), and charm, and a nice included breakfast. Worked for us. Nice bay windows facing the street.

There were some things to overlook, or know about: if you have big bags or mobility issues, take a room on ground floor, as there is a large Victorian staircase. Showers/bathrooms are tiny, the room is crowded, as well, but not terrible for a night or two.

The hotel was well decorated and clean, the security system made me feel safe. All of the staff was warm and welcoming, very intent on making sure you have everything you need. Given the shared bathrooms (sooo clean with luxurious showers) the added touch of robes and slippers added a pampering touch. The continental breakfast was nice and available a good amount of time, though the hotel is located within walking distance of many freak breakfast options.

Mission Street has a homeless presence and not awesome smells. Hang out around Valencia and problem solved. Do be cautious about walking after dark to the hotel door though.

The staff was great. Recommended a nice dinner and breakfast spot for us. Very welcoming and the atmosphere was very relaxing.

Showers had low water pressure. But other than that, everything was great.

The hotel's in a pretty good location with good access to public transportation. I was able to get around using buses, BART and the trolley out front no problem. It might not be the nicest part of town but it wasn't bad. I didn't feel unsafe at any point in the immediate vicinity. There were homeless around but I saw that in lots of parts of the city. When I got to my room, I was glad to see that it was spotless and bright. It was a very basic room but had everything I needed, with a couple nice little touches. The bathroom I had was large and clean with a jacuzzi tub (that I felt too bad to use... signs about a CA water shortage all around town). Bed was comfortable. The service at the front desk really made it stand out though. Ellen was incredibly pleasant and helpful and it made all the difference in my trip, honestly. She had spot-on recommendations and took the time to get a feel for what you might like. It was a little bit like having a friend in the city to help you get acclimated. I'm sure she wouldn't bother you if you're just looking for a place to stay, though. For what I paid, I'd definitely consider staying again on my next trip to the city.

They give you a key to the front door that's $200 if you lose it and have to get it replaced! That was definitely an extra stress I didn't want to worry about on my trip. They need a light near the bathroom mirror. It was hard to see my face for shaving so I was pretty worried I had missed a spot. The road noise was a little annoying, but tolerable. I came in November, so maybe they just hadn't turned on the heat yet, but my room was pretty darn cold in the morning. It was fine for the rest of the day and at night though.

We liked the bed and the bathroom. It was kind of small but understandable in San Francisco. The neighborhood was very nice and there were plenty of places nearby that were reasonable to eat at. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

We had paid extra for a street-view room but did not get it. Instead we got free parking so, we didn't ask for a change.

Had a great common area with a fireplace and a good basic breakfast. Overall a great place! Rooms are the perfect size and clean and bathroom I had was large.

If you're a light sleeper, DO NOT stay here. Street is extremely busy most of the time, windows/walls didn't block any sound. It was also a little odd that the bartender/bar was also the front desk so if you needed something you had to call the bar.

Loved the eclectic feeling of this hotel! The staff was super friendly and helpful. There is a big common space/ living room and 24 hour open snacks that gave us the comfort of being at home. The room was clean and comfortable and felt private. The restaurant below is open late with great food and drinks, the perfect place to come back to after long days roaming the city.

That there was a bar right below us. I really liked to free breakfast and the staff was very nice!

There was nothing that I disliked :)

Good location. Kind people. Wifi. No bedbugs. Reasonable price.

Toilet and bathroom is shared. No elevators. Kinda old. A little bit noisy when you open the windows.

The hotel is right near many fantastic restaurants (Truly Mediterranean, Pancho Villa Taqueria) and bars (Zeitgeist), right on many Bus lines and the 16th St & Mission BART station that will get you anywhere you need to go, you can be to Market street or Embarcadero in less than 15-20 minutes including walking. Plenty of city noise if you don't mind it. Low-frills room with decently comfortable beds, mini fridge (the best part), flatscreen TV, shower. If you're a savvy traveler, it's the perfect place to clean up and shower and maybe even get some sleep between all your adventures in the Bay area.

It was a clean room in an old building in a party district. I felt safe and slept with the window open. The music downstairs was cool as we had been to hardly strictly bluegrass festival and were coming down off the good times and good music. It is right by a Bart station but we didn't use it. Having the bathroom and shower across the hall was not an issue.

It is hard to find free parking but possible. Bring good energy and the parking gods might smile upon you.
