The place was just as advertised; good location, clean, safe, decent sized room, etc. The bathroom is a bit small and is shared among all residents, which is not ideal, but I had no troubles. It's definitely an older building, but there were no problems. The bed was fine, plenty of room for bags, clothes, etc. Greg -- the de facto host -- was helpful and flexible. A personal lock on the bedroom is nice. Just a short walk to a bike rental place, as well as a number of bars, restaurants, clubs, coffee shops, etc.

Bottom line: the place is nothing special, and if you're looking for a place to relax a lot during the day, have a lot of your own space, etc., this probably isn't for you. But if you just want a place to keep your bags, sleep, shower, have access to internet and a kitchen, etc., it was just fine.

Note: No A/C, so if you're there during a heat wave, you will either have to be warm or sleep with the windows open (and the road below can be a bit noisy). But given that it's SF, heat waves are rare.
