To preface, I stayed in this place for 9 days, so it was a longer stay than normal.
Overall, it's a great place for what you pay for. The bed is comfortable, the room is clean, and the wifi works. You can also lock your own door when you leave, which is good security. I think it is a great place to stay if you are only staying one or two nights and going around the city during the day.
I was in need of a place to stay for the first week of a job. This meant that this was going to be my home base for 9 days. The kitchen, because it is Alex’s and had his things (like food and newspapers on the table), was not a great place for a guest to cook if that is important to you. However, the area has many great restaurants. Also, the dining room was not accessible to me, like shown in the photos.
There are two bathrooms which is nice so if one was in use, you could use the other. But, the bathrooms were not well maintained. There were a couple guests in and out during my stay and every time after they left, I knew that the shower was not cleaned.
The walls are also very thin in this place. I could hear people talking, walking around the place, and using the restroom. If you are a light sleeper, I would bring ear plugs.
Although I say these things, I believe that this is a great location with great street parking. It's a block away from Geary, so easy access to the muni bus.
Alex is also very nice and friendly and was easily accessible to message.
