Although it seems this place was once kinda hip, it’s a bit rundown now and, as others have said, the experience is loud and lacking. More than frustrating, it was really sad to see.
Our room (302) was on the Mission St rest side of the building, with lovely windows that unfortunately offered zero insulation from street noise. The room was lackluster and plain, lacking attention to detail. The sheets were very basic and had stains. All of the furniture, drapes, linens, and walls needed repair or replacing. The road noise was overwhelming. The vagrants on the street out front didn’t seem dangerous but sure made the experience uncomfortable. The bathrooms, located at the far end of the building, were clean and always available. The one staff person I encountered was kind. As other reviewers pointed out, the light in the headboard was making a non-stop, high pitched whirring noise. Luckily I had earplugs and needed them anyway, to dampen the buses, trucks, and druggies yelling down below.
Worth noting, there is no elevator.
At a bargain of $85 for a Friday night in November, you definitely get what you pay for here but I’m not sure it’s worth the savings.
