This is such a great place to stay if you're on a budget and want to be central to everything in the city.
Cons:
- Shared bathroom, if you're not comfortable with that sort of thing.
- Street noise. Gough is a high traffic street, and there are bars and restaurants below the hotel.
- No air conditioner for the rare hot days/nights.
Pros:
- The bathrooms are kept clean and stocked. Always a bathroom and shower available. (Remember to bring slippers/flip flops for the shower!)
- When the windows are closed the noise level is almost completely eliminated.
- If you stay during the rare times that the weather is hot there is an overhead fan. Opening the windows lets in a perfect breeze. An air conditioner would probably be overkill.
- Central location to everything in the city with Muni routes only a couple of blocks away.
- Friendly, responsive and helpful hosts.
- Fantastic food all over the immediate neighborhood.
- Clean location, building and rooms.
- Great price and value!
I can't imagine staying anywhere else in the city.
