10/10 Exceptional

Over delivers for the price. The mobile check in with no front desk is awesome. Sweet bar near by. Not loud. Just good drinks. Stay with confidence.

Cool, simple and clean room in a great location.
Matt, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was great, although self check-in required assistance. Floors are slanted, elevator is old and slow, staff is polite. It's quirky and somewhat inconvenient, like being on vacation in a charming town without too many amenities. Fantastic location.

Pleasant hotel, good price, fun neighborhood

Hotel concept is cute. Good location. Loved the check in process. However, guy at front desk was rude and condescending when I was having difficulty with the code for the front door and COCKROACHES!!!
Elisha, 1-night trip

I looked the self-service aspect as well as the artistic feel.

This is an adventure place with the best location!

This is a great spot and super fun stay! I enjoyed everything but the bed, but it was a cool place to lay my head down. Wish there was a ceiling fan or some way to move air, the windows did not open. And one of the blinds did not open and were always partially open. The bar below closes at 2am, bring ear plugs or skip this amazing art hotel if you are too sensitive. I can't wait to come back and stay in another cool room.

You are in a fantastic location. Steps from Chinatown and short distance from North Beach. Saves you time because getting places is easy. I'd recommend this is a place if you are ok with small rooms and the showers in the hallway. My room didn't have a lamp, just an overhead light. I would say if you are looking for bare bones, great location, clean bed this would be your place.

The location was perfect! The hotel was clean and the quad room that we had was a good size.

A New Hotel Experience

I had never checked in the way they had things set up so it was a little confusing and a bit frustrating when I had trouble with the code to open the door. I am partially to blame though because i didn't read their email with instructions like I should have. Other than that, our stay was fun. We enjoyed the unique experience of this hotel. There are no staff onsite, so be prepared, everything is self-serve.
Cool mural!

6/10 Good

Good location for public transit, plenty of parking garages nearby. Room was a bit small and dusty in some spots. Stairs are very steep between floors but there is an elevator.
Kyra, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room was clean. It was extremely loud every night outside into the early morning hours, daily. Rooms are hot even with the use of a fan.
Sterling, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

The stay was great, the staff was excellent, however upon checking in we discovered a huge cockroach in our room! My wife is HIGHLY allergic to cockroachs so it definitely put a damper on our first night. Luckily the staff handled the issue in an acceptable time frame and we ended up having an ok time.
Dante, 2-night trip

Good location but found cockroaches in the room so immediately left. Hard to get in touch with customer service to get a refund

8/10 Very good

The whole aesthetic and idea behind the hotel is awesome, and very affordable which I think is a big deal. The art is super cool and at least in my room had humorous undertones. My only issue is the walls are super thin and not at all soundproof and the beds are poor quality.
Bart, 1-night trip
