Really good for a solo work/play trip to SF. I am familiar with the city and knew the area where I would be staying before I got here. The other reviews are all spot on - it's a lovely place, secure, with a comfy bed, good shower pressure, all the basic amenities you would expect from a hotel room plus a few more. Hosts are great and very responsive. It's really close to a Bay Wheels bike rack, there are electric scooters everywhere, you're close to several bus routes, and the Civic Center BART/Muni station is walking distance away. SoMa is gritty and it's true that there are a lot of unhoused folks who stay in the area, mostly because there are a lot of social support services nearby. So you do have to watch where you're stepping since there are people camping out and some drug paraphernalia. But at no point did I feel unsafe, even as a woman walking through some of the nearby streets at night. No one bothered me at all. Just walk with purpose and you'll be fine. Would stay again.
