Great location, very clean, nice sized room. Coffee/tea/water available in the lobby. Our mattress did not fit the bed and wasn't the most comfy, otherwise it would be a solid 5 stars.

Great location in North Beach. Only issue was starting construction at 8;00 am Sunday morning, sawing and hammering

This place is so cute, right in the middle of everything. Everything was extremely clean and the staff was attentive. Never once did I go get water or coffee or tea and the water was out. I even had an issue with my toilet and I texted the hotel and someone was there to check two minutes later.
I would stay at the Washington Inn again. The location is superb, a block or two from the heart of North Beach, but it was completely quiet at night. The price was very good for SF. However, you should know that the hotel is pretty rough around the edges. Shower handle a bit funky, carpet very worn in spots, aging tiles, mattress hardly in its first youth (but we slept well). If you want the bathroom in your room as opposed to across the hall, make sure to reserve ensuite.
The property is located in a very safe and eye appealing location. The hotel is a throwback to the 60's. The ONLY thing that has to change - the carpet. I stayed in 2 rooms, and I had several work mates with me. We all stated the same - the carpet was filthy. Bathrooms were clean, beds were very nice and the rooms are on the smaller side...but the location suited our needs.
The hotel is super convenient and very clean. Rooms are on the smaller end, but still plenty of room. Having Washington Square Park right out the door is amazing! There is no elevator, but we knew that ahead of time. We will definitely be back!
Convenient location. Lots of Italian restaurants. Walking distance to Chinatown and the Financial District and the coast. Housekeeping is very helpful. Room is a bit small and cramped. There is no air conditioning. Walls have signs of water damage. Bathroom ceiling and walls have mold.

The “concept” is very modern, but all sorts of ages of people choose to stay at this facility and some people are not versed in how to access the entry/ check in process— which was just plain inconvenient. Everything else as far as location and cleaning and such, was fine. You should have staff, just that simple.
This is one of the funnest locations to stay in the city! North Beach is safe, clean and great access to all the best restaurants. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here!
My wife and I stayed here 3 times in the last 2 weeks as we were traveling around the state and Oregon. It is now our go to place to stay in San Francisco. It is located in the best location, exactly where we want to be.
Beautiful interior. Comfortable bed. Coffee access all day and night. Lobby comfortable and a good place to hang out if needed. Help staff, quite helpful. Every thing was emasculate. Cleaning person very kind and helpful.
