Stayed for 3 nights at the end of February loved the place very helpful staff good location,walking distance to Union Square,Chinatown and cable cars but is just the style of this place just makes you smile. Would recommend

We stayed there for 2 nights and staff were very friendly and helpful. It was in a great location and quite central to restaurants and cafe's. bed was comfy and bathroom was nice and clean. I would go back again if visiting San Francisco.

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 nights in February after his parents recommended it. It lived up to our expectations. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were in good condition and nicely furnished. However, after showering, the bath tub would take a while to empty. The most noteworthy trait was its location which was a 10 min walk from union square. That said, it is right above an area called Tenderloin which you don't want to be near at night.

Overall, it was a very nice hotel with great staff and a great price and we would definitely stay here again if we were to return to San Fran.

I was intrigued by the Hitchcock theme of the hotel, however the hotel fell a little short in its execution. I requested a room on a higher floor facing the street so I could take advantage of the bay windows. While the windows were great, the room got uncomfortably warm during the day when the sun was at full strength. The hotel has no A/C, and only one window was able to be opened (however there was no screen and opened directly unto a fire escape, which didn't make me feel safe keeping it propped open.) There was a ceiling fan, as well as an old vented fan in the wall. Overnight, the room returned to a more manageable temperature. The room itself was very large and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The furniture looked a little low budget, though and the phones were pretty old. The bathroom was a good size. Everything was very clean, so that was a major bonus. The other major bonus is the location. It's in the "TenderNob," just below Nob Hill (where the hotels get really expensive) and above the Tenderloin (where you just don't want to stay.) I felt safe in the area, as a single female, even at night. There are a lot of little restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores and bars very near the hotel. Only a few short slightly uphill blocks to the California Cable line to the Ferry Building/Embarcadero. On foot, it isn't a very long walk to Union Square or The Ferry Building (20 min to Ferry Building, by my estimate, and downhill!) It's no luxury hotel, but definitely satisfactory enough that I would stay again (if able to find a low rate.)
