Pros
- great location just minutes from Haight main road with all the funky 60s/70s vibe and cool shops
- close to bus lines to get you all over the city
- right next to Golden Gate Park which is great for walking or riding around
- good communication with host
- check in was swift and easy
Cons
- it’s an old building and the windows are thin, which means it gets noisy. This is particularly bad at rush hour in the morning as it’s next to a busy road which seems to attract lots of trucks, so we were woken up around 6am a few times
- the curtains were very thin (and the window right next to the bed basically doesn’t have one) so it got very bright in the room as the sun rose
- the room is a pretty basic affair but really you should be spending most of your time in the city anyway
- the room was clean but the communal bathroom at the top got a bit dirty after a few days, especially the shower which got blocked up (three rooms to one bathroom). We just used the one downstairs instead
All in all a perfectly ok place to base yourself for a few nights (Haight is an awesome neighbourhood) but I probably would steer clear if you’re a light sleeper like me
