2-Star Hotels in San Francisco

It is very close to Union Square, the Municipal Square and the subway entrance. Take the subway directly to the airport. The transportation is convenient. The hotel guy has a warm service and upgraded the room for free. Although the room is old, it is clean. Very characteristic small hotel. There are a lot of homeless people in the street below, but it's safe. discount price.

I stayed here during a conference where the price was raised to $240/night. If the price had been quite a bit lower as it might normally be, I probably wouldn't complain much. The location is hard to beat in terms of proximity to Union Square and the Moscone Center, and the front desk staff was friendly. Other reviews have noted that the rooms are dated--and I found that to be true as well. But, my room was clean. The wifi worked, and the rooms were insulated from noise from adjoining rooms. However, there was hardly any noise isolation from the outside. I was on the 6th floor facing Geary Street, and I could hear just about everything going on well into the evening. The heat in my room was also not working until my last night there--and that combined with very thin covers left me pretty cold (though the bed itself was comfortable). When the heat did work, it made a strange noise reminiscent of a dying cat, so I ended up turning it off anyway. One tip for taller or larger travelers: I am 5' 2'', and the shower head was only 2 inches above my head. So if you're much taller than me, you'll be bending down to rinse your hair. You'll also find the bathroom overall to be quite small.

Stayed here for 2 nights and was pleasantly surprised. Prices are quite affordable considering it's in San Francisco. The location was great. I booked this hotel in particular primarily because of its rather close proximity to the BART station. It is indeed only a 10-minute walk from Montgomery station, although if you're arriving from the airport be prepared to drag your bags uphill. The hotel is smack dab in the middle of Chinatown in a rather busy area. I never felt unsafe here, whether evening or early morning, as there are always people milling about minding their own business. If you like walking, you can journey to Fisherman's Wharf within 30 minutes on foot, which is what I did. You can also walk in the opposite direction toward Westfield and Target if you like to shop. There are several bus stops and tram lines nearby. As for the room, it was small but didn't feel cramped. There's no air-conditioning but it was rather chilly in July so I had no issues with heat. No problems with the shower either. Checking in and out were a breeze. I was even able to order food through GrubHub (because most restaurants in that area close at 8 pm even on weekends, which I found out the hard way!) I suppose my only complaint would be that you can definitely hear your neighbors at all times. I could hear someone stomping on the floor above, and sometimes I'd get noise from the rooms adjacent to mine. I was able to sleep just fine, though, as the bed was really comfortable. I'd changed my hotel to this one at the last minute and I'm glad I did. Apart from the occasional noise, I had a lovely stay.

The hotel is just 100 meters from the 16th Mission Street exit. The owner is a Panamanian (Indian) and the service is very warm. The size of the house is small, except for the public shower and toilet, the rest are private. There are many black people downstairs, but they are safer than you think. Single girls are not recommended to travel alone at night.

I’ve always had bad experiences with check in or just with front desk customer service. It was nice to have a nice experience for once. The lady that works the front desk was Super nice. She told kept me well informed of all that I am paying for including parking. Greeted with a smile was really professional. I think she said her name was Tofi. Bright young woman. Definitely will be staying here if I am in this area.

The coffee machine is really the reason for the high evaluation of this place. There is a hot chocolate drink in it. It is really good in winter.

This was the cheapest non hostel, private room hotel I could find in San Francisco. It's much better than other reviews suggest. I was pleasantly surprised. Room quite modern looking (better than the photos, off white wooden flooring) Clean. No bad smell at all. I stayed in a single room that was small, but I've stayed in smaller in Times Square NYC before so no big deal. Single bed was on the big side for a single. Very comfy. I slept so good. Cleaners never came but I was only there 2 nights. The shared bathroom was in good condition. I didn't see one other guest in my 2 nights there. Just some food delivery people dropping to reception.The local area isn't bad. I only see a couple of dodgy people outside. It's in Chinatown which isn't a bad area. Reception has CCTV and a night security guard. Honestly, if you are a solo traveller here you'll feel safe. Little donut/cafe/coffee shop next door to get breakfast. 20 minute walk to Pier 33 (Alcatraz), 1.5 hour walk to Golden Gate Bridge (or $17 Uber). I'm happy I found this place, I need my own privacy when travelling and this was perfect. I'd recommend for solo travellers for sure. Oh and dead silent of a night. I'm writing this from a motel in Monterey and the noise here made me appreciate just how quiet Hotel North Beach was. Just don't expect luxury but honestly, it's not a dump. It's a clean room of your own, safe and quiet. I've given it a 4 not a 5 because it's not perfect but certainly adequate.

This hotel is only a few hundred meters away from the famous scenic spot Jiuquhua Street. The surrounding environment is very beautiful. There are special sightseeing buses passing by the entrance of the hotel, and it is not far from the famous tourist attraction Fisherman's Wharf. It is also about 20 minutes. There are great Japanese restaurants next to and opposite the hotel.

The location is very good. There are security guards at the door. Although there are tramps nearby, it is safer if you don’t go back too late. Many international friends, many free activities, many friends who travel alone, simple but very good breakfast.

Enjoying my stay and peace. Front door is locked with room keys. Safe. Very comfortable and clean. Staff are nice and welcoming. Good choice for the price! Give it 5 stars for the overall comfort and the people who run the business. Not a 5 star hotel. But its overall stay for the price is good.
