Ideal for the budget traveler: in a safe part of town with no frills. No elevator and the rooms are quite Spartan—fridge, microwave, TV, shower & toilet, but no chair or desk. Muni bus access to all parts of town and a 15 minute walk to the opera, symphony, Asian Art Museum, and City Hall. In a residential neighborhood with a couple of late night convenience stores. Staff and fellow guests are friendly gathered around the (free) coffee machine in the mornings.
