Im a travel nurse and I stayed here for 3 months. The views from this 6th floor room are absolutely amazing. The place was clean and comfortable with lots of closet space to store my suitcases. The smart TV was easy to use and the internet was reliable. Its on the corner and gets great airflow. I would absolutely rent this room again. Clean and nice. Though I would suggest some decorations couldn’t hurt.
There are a couple things I would have changed. The on sight laundry wasn’t worth using. The dryers didn’t get my clothes dry and the washers left soap residue on my clothes. There is a laundromat a block east on O’Farrell that I opted to use instead after the first couple weeks. You can get down to the laundry room/trash room with the elevator but cannot get out without going up the stairs.
There are two elevators, but the main one near the entrance was broken without sign of being repaired anytime soon, for the duration of my stay.
The tenderloin area is a bit rough, with homeless people everywhere. I didn’t have any problems with anyone walking in the area. Im a tiny gal and walked and took the bus everywhere without incident.
There is a bus stop right in front of the building. Easy walking to union square and other shopping. Great restaurants on Polk st and in Japan Town is only a few blocks away.
The light in the bathroom is automated and can pop on in the middle of the night without warning. There isn’t a way to turn off the automatic setting and means you have to sleep with the door closed, which causes less airflow at night. When it’s warmer, that can be a problem.
Overall I loved it and would stay here again:-)
