Excellent location in the middle of downtown San Francisco, right above many busy eateries and a short walk from the train station. The bathroom was almost always available even though they are shared for the whole floor. The in-room sink helps a lot. Very responsive staff to help with my issues. Good value for the low price

Honestly nothing
The room was dirty with hair on the sink, the carpet was coming up, there was 1 toilet and one shower down the hall, also dirty and definitely not disability accessible. I have a sprained ankle, my partner has a bad back from the military and we had to carry our suitcase up 2 flights of stairs. We're both in pain now and couldn't even sleep there

Nice kitchen room! It was very cozy to have breakfast there.
The smell from the restaurant downstairs could be smelled on the stairs from the entrance. But only there.

The location is really good, close to many good restaurants and public transportation.
It is also decent value of money considering the price for other accomodations.
The lounge and stairs have a strong smell that is unpleasant. The facility is older than what is shown in the pictures. And though I lived in the non-street-facing side, there is a fan or sth outside of the building consistently running, making some noises. It would not be nice for some one who does not have very good sleep quality.
As can be expected in old house, the sound isolation is soooo poor that things dropped on my neighbour room or upper floor feels like in my room.

We arrived at 11 am after an early flight. The cleaners made our room available quickly so we could leave our luggage. There is a safe luggage room to store luggage as we had a night flight out of SF. Perfect location for walking and not far from BART.

The only good point of this location is its position and worth stay one night only, the rest is quite disappointing. It is extremely noisy and the there is no staff present to help, online answers are extremely slow and do not bring to anything. Be prepared to hear casual guests from the road entering at night
Rooms are extremely noisy, there is not help desk and the online service answers come days after (I am still waiting an invoice for my stay of 10 days ago). Being close to a vivid area, you have casual guests entering the rooms at night had making a lot of noise. It's no use to say that the price / service ratio is no worth.

The location is good and in a "vibey" neighbourhood
The room was smaller than expected and certainly looking tired. My room didn't have any windows that could be opened and the air was stale. The carpet could use a deep clean.

...Loved the ease of check-in, the very friendly and room attendants. The customer service was also really good, as I had a problem with my electronic key. They were amazing, and had a quick solution.
The only problem was that my room was colder than it was outside. This season, the room needs heat.

Hayes Valley Inn has become my go-to for my frequent trips for a night or two in SF. Moving far up the coast after many years in 'the city, " I need a comfortable, reliable, and cost-effective place to stay. The location is superb and familiar. The public parking garage is a short walk away. It's never packed or crowded in hallways or at the venue, and is a very similar place to a wonderful European guesthouse. The common areas are amazing. from just a place to sit on a sofa or spend time in a greater space with a refrigerator, kitchen, and view of the hustle outside the window and below, and tables and space to work, spread out, or just enjoy the often interesting other folks at the place. The price is amazing. And while the rooms are small and do not have a private bathroom, the bathroom and shower rooms are private and like a European hotel. It's reliable and my home away from home. The staff I pass, housekeeping, are lovely and helpful. It took a while to get used to the remote and phone check-in with open key and not the ready access f help on the premises, but I am used to it now, and it's reliable. And right outside the door is the awesome hustle and bustle of one of the best neighborhoods in San Francisco. Thank you, Hayes Valley Inn. I give this spot a 10 but I don't want it to get too popular. :) It's like a secret.
I would like a bit more comfort in the remote check-in process, just in case I need on-the-spot help. Perhaps, an on-site person in case of a problem like getting locked out or not having signal on my phone, to solve an issue. Something where I can rely on the comfort of having an immediate answer to something that may come up, or even a hotline with immediate support

Great location, nice shared kitchen.
It's actually a hostel. The shared bathroom is very small and old. Very loud vent noise in the room (I think there is a restaurant vent or something just outside the window). Zero acoustic isolation between rooms.

The room was very nice. The ceiling fan was plenty to keep us cool but in baking hot weather guests should know there's no AC. The eating area is beautiful and the guests while we were there kept it clean. The cleaning staff were the best kind of hospitable and the rooms were immaculate.
The "contactless" Hotel check in process was dreadful . . . so little contact that we almost couldn't get in at all. Locked front door. No reply to the listed phone number and no call back in response to two messages left with the listed number. No response to the doorbell either even though it turned out there was someone in "reception" in the kitchen. The building has NO STAFF on site at all over the weekend.
By contrast, once we were inside the building the "contactless" room key worked very well.

Comfortable bed, clean accommodations super friendly staff. Thank you for the availabiity to check in a little early! I loved the window overlooking Gough st . and being able to open it to enjoy the fresh air and the lively neighborhood.
Honestly I have nothing to comment here! We had more street noise during this stay since our room was on the street side this time but it didn't bother me since it dies down for teh most part by midnite.

The location is perfect for us. The room and building are beautifully maintained old SanFrancisco. Everything was clean and easy to use.
Sometime the key didn’t work. However, someone would come in about 10 minutes or less to remedy the situation.

I like the location of the hotel. The bathroom and shower room being outside is definitely a bit inconvenient and not private. Otherwise, good value given the convenient locations. A bit noisy since there are a few popular restaurant and bar just downstairs.
A bit noisy. Bath and WC room outside shared.
