Pros: - Hotel decor is cute, particularly in the lobby. - Staff are friendly and helpful. - very close to the Powell cable car turnaround and the Powell BART station. Cons: - There were so many homless people outside that my kids felt unsafe to walk in the evening. - no air conditioning in the rooms! The fan they provided is not enough. If you open the window, it’s noisy because of tge homeless people outside. - There’s this certain smell along the corridor that I cannot describe. I seems musty due to lack of proper ventilation

This is a very nice hotel considering the price. The hotel is very clean, and the restaurant/bar is great. The staff are warm and friendly. But there was a lot of noise and yelling at all hours of the night, and our room was very warm without the heater on so we had to leave the window open. Overall, a good experience. I would stay here again, I’d just bring some noise-canceling headphones.

Nice hotel, bad area

I thought reviews would be exaggerating the sketchiness of the area but it is unfortunetly one of the lesser parts of San Francisco. What was most upsetting is when I see "parking available" I expect it to be on property. However, I had to park in a third part lot on the over side of the street for $50. They should not advertise parking if it is not their or reliable. Additionally "breakfast" was some yogurt, muffins, and coffee. The room did look nice and was clean. Could have used a mini fridge or microwave. And I am not sure how I felt that the door was a passcode instead of a usual hotel door key. Not the worse stay but lot to take into account to determine if this is the place for you/worth it.

The front desk staff were nice (all of them). The room was a little dark. The area is close to public transport and easy to travel but a lot of homeless in that area and near the hotel. You will walk pass them when you go back and forth to the hotel. I am a solo male traveller. Of course, they wont do anything to you, but you still feel something. I know its nothing to do with the hotel. But it is something that San Francisco needs to look at.

Location, location, location

The hotel looks to be remodeled from an older SF style building with the cool fire escapes! The shower situation wasn’t great as the tub wasn’t working and the shower water pressure was so light I felt it was taking forever to do finish. Inside is cute (and tiny) but when you step outside, you’d met with a street of homeless crazy people. It seems to be in the worst part with the homeless as we drove many other places without seeing the same thing on any other street. They were available for booking and allowed dogs. Would not stay again entirely bc of location. Front desk girl was sweet

Better than the other reviews suggested!

What the hotel could control was mostly excellent for the price point. The room was well maintained, the reception staff amazing, bed and bedding better than expected, and the bathroom was well maintained. Breakfast was very basic and somewhat ‘meh’ but better than nothing. The street outside is very noisy - some of those living there were playing loud music late at night/early in the morning. Not much the hotel can do about that but it might be off putting to some. Likewise, the homelessness in the area would be concerning to some but we did not feel unsafe - we walked with purpose and were reassured by the police/security presence in the area. It’s a shame the SF authorities have allowed the area to decline as it has and are not actively seeking to compassionately address the homelessness problem in the blocks around the Bijou.
