Bad points were no AC or ice machine and old spring mattresses should be upgraded. Location was awesome- Not too close to BART, but city buses run up nearly every street. SUPER close to Chinatown and the wharves, and hotel staff go to great measures to keep the riff raff outside, although some rooms are longer term occupancy. Perfect room for single, budget minded travelers--- I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.…"
