SF Central Hotel

Decent.

Overall, it was a good experience.

It was basic but provided a good night’s rest. Don’t expect a 5 star, or a three star. You get what you pay for. Staff are nice but very much straight to the point. Parking is extra.

The front desk staff was very helpful and assisted me at my arrival. I found the room to be cleaner and in better condition than many other hotels within the same price range. I would recommend staying here again to any of my friends from out of town who need a good location in the center of the city to rest for the night and still have a few bucks to afford a decent breakfast in the morning.

It is completely different now. It’s family oriented and business unlike when it was

It is centrally located and close to homeless area. Not necessarily unsafe, but busy area. On the upside, it’s close to restaurants and the Castro District. It’s convenient and close to public transportation.

Work related needed , needs to live close from worksite / work proximity

I would not stay again

There were crackheads all up and down the hallway trying to get into my room sleeping on the floor. I had to call the front desk. They said security clear people out. The area is beautiful all around just a lot of crazy people good value for the price. I guess you’re still Room is a little bit cleaner.

I enjoyed my stay. The room I was given was exactly what I booked and came with a little extra space and a few additional windows. However, one of the room windows was cracked, but didn’t affect my security deposit nor my stay. That cracked window did make a negative difference to the room temperature. I constantly had to switch on the heater - which was a minor inconvenience. I did find it odd, though, that only one power outlet only worked & the tv was bolted into the dresser by the bed. The tv was also in Spanish which was inconvenient, as well. Room was otherwise clean, comfortable and provided me a nice rest which is what I paid for. All in all, great stay. Thank you to sf central front desk and house keeping. $100 Cash or $100 on a debit/credit card accepted for their security deposit. Deposit is $100 for entire stay not per night.

It was very good experience over there

The worst hotel I have EVER stayed in my life ! The front desk was rude , unhelpful. The room was dirty : small blood stains in the sheets , the bed site lamp was broken , the A/C Heat was broken …the curtains were broken! everything was so BAD. I left after the 1st night ! And I never got a rerund!!!!!!

This place is a filthy dirty crime ridden property. Do not stay there under any circumstance.

Disgusting Hotel – Not Worth a Single Night The moment we pulled up, we knew something was off. The area felt sketchy, the kind of place that makes you keep an eye over your shoulder. But we had a reservation, so we gave it a shot—big mistake. The first room we got smacked us in the face with a strong cigarette smell and musty air, like it hadn’t been aired out in years. The floors were sticky, either from too many cleaning chemicals or something worse we didn’t want to think about. Breathing in there felt wrong. We asked for another room, hoping for at least a small improvement, but it was just as bad—same nasty smell, same uncomfortable vibe. We sat there for about 20 minutes trying to convince ourselves to stay, but the more we looked around, the clearer it became: no way were we sleeping there. Instead of wasting a night in that mess, we packed up and drove all the way back home to San Jose. This place is dirty, smelly, and just straight-up unpleasant. No deal or discount would make it worth it. If you care at all about safety and cleanliness, do yourself a favor—stay somewhere else.

Enjoy the property the staff & service

Staff was helpful, area is what you’d expect near DTSF

Just understand where you are staying. I knew what I was paying for. Let's just say I slept with the lights on for the first time in a hotel ever.

If there were negative stars I would give it. Pictures of rooms were not accurate. Very rundown gross rooms in a not safe area

The location of the hotel is a little sketchy. Although, there were a few good food spots & bars nearby we didn't feel very safe around the area leaving our car or valuables in the hotel at all. The "suite" for 5 people located on the 2nd floor that we got was at the very corner of the hotel. The first night we got there to sleep, there was a bunch of footsteps going back & forth for hours up to the point we were so tired we didn't care or bother calling the office. The next morning, we woke up really early to get ready at 6-7am, we can hear heavy footsteps again like there was a bunch of people moving furnitures above us. We ended up calling the office 3x and they said they were going to send security to check these people up there. We waited to see if it would stop but it didn't, so I tried to call the main office again & it seemed like they blocked my calls from the room telephone from going through their office phone and would even hang up to avoid talking to me about the situation that we kept hearing the loud food steps. All in all, we were very annoyed about how loud you can hear those footsteps and beware of the total price if you booked it from online/third party so expect that extra $25 charge for parking (per night) when they ask for payment at the window. They also give you very few shower towels. With a 5-person suite, we got 3 shower towels only! Don't be deceived by the pictures, it looked just like a cheap motel and the room smelled like sweat.

Staff, Location, Facility all outstanding
