Room was good, had a great view of the ocean. Didn't realize how close to the beach the hotel was located. The only downside was for my particular room there was no heater so it became freezing in the middle of the night. Overall, good stay.

Great value for a location steps from the beach and golden gate park.
Rooms have become smelly and dilapidated. Floors creak and good luck sleeping if you’re not on the top floor. Staff was slow to respond to a chirping, low-battery smoke alarm. Took almost three hours to get maintenance. Family member was severally hurt when she ran into the side of a poorly put together bed frame. Cut shin so deep she ended up in the emergency room. The staff had no manager and were less than helpful when we tried to at least file an incident report at the front desk. Never again. We stay there because of proximity to ocean beach and a wonderful coffee cafe on the corner and how close to Golden Gate Park.

Easy and free parking is the best. Ask for a 3rd floor room to great views
Room had cockroaches so as soon as we saw that we left and just booked another hotel

Good staff, room was clean and big. Everything was excellent except for the toilet. It was not working properly. It didn’t work properly for my 3 days. Other than that everything was good.

The staff unfortunately were very rude -- however, we do appreciate the price.
The hotel is on the street. Anyone can pull into any of hotel parking space. So hard to park especially on weekend. Street parking can be taken by some homeless cars. There is no place to sit outside the room, it is right on the street and noise level is high. The streets can be busy plus sea breeze can bring beach dust to cover everything. The only good thing is the price... that seems to going up too.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room had damages all over. The bedside drawing was missing a drawer. The bathroom had a window that could not be closed so there were dead bugs that got stuck in the ceiling light. Terrible experience I had to check out early and go to a different hotel.
There was a hole in the ceiling that dirtied the bathroom floor... Had to clean the bathroom several times.
However, enjoy the price... Will continue to use the place; but it certainly is not perfect.

We got this place on a deal, which made it very worth it. Is it the best room you’ll ever stay at? No, but is it a great location with beach, Golden Gate Park and lots of food spots nearby? Yes it absolutely is and the staff members are nice and efficient.
