I have been in many, many hotels in San Francisco and this may be the lowest. The lobby is unfortunately scarier than the rooms. The monitor with the dozen or so cameras scanning the hallways, the beat up copy of the driver's licenses of the previous customers barred from returning, the smell, the empty wire rack of free maps. I almost bolted. But, I didn't. And I wanted to see the room before I decided I could or could not stay. The room was surprising in that is didn't present as badly as the lobby. There is still an odd, not good scent (I immediately opened the windows), and I cannot remember when I was last in a hotel room that had no carpet on the floor. (and maybe that was a good think as the faux wood plank vinyl looked clean) The sink and faucet in the bathroom was a total surprise as they were new and super clean. The bath/shower looked nice. But, when I did turn on the shower the water ran out of the tub faucet so rusty for the first ten seconds it looked like blood! But, that stopped and it was a fine shower but with those devices on the wall for a squirt of shampoo and bath gel. If you are OK with "vintage" and many, many coats of paint on all the woodwork and the tiny ancient, caged door elevator this could still be the place for you.
