I stayed here one night to see a show at the Palace of Fine Arts and it was a very convenient spot for that. I was able to walk to the venue and felt totally safe doing so. The person at the front desk was great, friendly and helpful. There was plenty of free self-parking, though spaces were on the smaller side as is the norm in SF. The room itself had an overwhelming musty chemical smell, like stale cleaning supplies. I had to open both windows immediately to let it air out. It was nice being able to open windows, but I was also a single female-presenting person in a downstairs room with a big window facing the parking lot / street so that didn't help with feeling safe. The neighborhood itself didn't feel unsafe though. People in the hotel and the surrounding area were really loud in the middle of the night. Sounded like a bunch of drunk people came back around last call, slamming doors and laughing, and someone was singing and yelling into a bullhorn at one point. I was up late anyway and put ear plugs in and it was fine, but if you need a quiet night this might not be the best option. I also noticed the shower seemed to be leaking water under the floorboards, so that might have been the source of the musty smell. And the chair at the desk was really gross - covered in stains. I put a towel on it before sitting down. Everything else seemed clean though.
