The Red Vic is the perfect place to stay if you want a laid back place to crash while you explore the city during the days! Great location right on Haight Street made it easy to plan our days and have moments to return to the room to drop things off and regroup without going far out of the way of things we wanted to do. Definitely visit Loved to Death and the dispensary next door, Love on Haight for hippie wares, and Amoeba to blow your whole paycheck on records! The communal space is very chill. Bed was too lumpy for me but we knew it would be minimal digs going into it. Really liked having our own shower! But if you don’t mind a walk down the hall, you can nab a cheaper room in the Red Vic— the shared bathrooms are all clean and there’s plenty of them. We’ll def stay here again!
