The hotel is generally well-liked for its unique, vintage charm and convenient location near Union Square and Chinatown. Guests appreciate the friendly and helpful staff, but some find the rooms small and outdated. The area around the hotel can be noisy and unsafe, with a notable presence of homeless people.

    Central location and clean rooms in good condition for a good price. The breakfast didn't have a lot of food options. The room was missing some storage options like a shelf under the TV for example.

    Estaba limpia la habitación y el baño, las camas muy incómodas y el lavabo del baño en malas condiciones, la habitación daba hacia la calle mucho ruido por las noches, el abanico no funcionaba y no podíamos cerrar la ventana, el personal fue amable. Y la ubicación muy buena y céntrica .

    The exterior of the building is quite beautiful with the typical old-fashioned style of architecture. The location was good with bus stops close by. The Powell St metro is about 4 blocks away, steep with luggage, but doable. Although the decor is old, it offers all the necessities for a sleepover. The bed and bedding were good. The staff members were helpful. They offer a breakfast with bread/toast, cereal and fruit. The water pressure in the shower was extremely strong, which made it difficult to wash your under the blast of water.

    This was an older but quaint hotel. The staff was extremely great. The room was small than I am normally use to, but the accommodations were very clean. Bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was small, private with pleanty of hot water. Be prepared for the one elevator thats more like a closet. Breakfast was basic toast andb cearl but free. The location was great. Union Square is 5 blocks walking, and a Lfte Pier 39 was less than $20. Great food was within a 5 to 10 minute walk from the hotel.

    The hotel was relatively clean, but definitely had some older, worn down aspects. My room was okay, but very stuffy and did not have a fan. The window only opened a crack, and it was also barred because it was next to an alleyway. You could also hear any noises from outside, next door, down the hall pretty loudly. Overall, it was an adequate place to stay but would not rebook.

    What could be better than an old-style San Francisco hotel at a reasonable price? Only one with an exceptional team of people. The staff made my stay truly unforgettable. Yes, sometimes the lock on my room door got stuck. And every single time, the amazing maintenance technician Miguel came to the rescue — twice even on his day off! The daytime front desk team — Harrys, Vickey, and Vishu — were among the friendliest people I have ever met. The night staff, Emmanuel, Sailesh, and their colleagues, patiently listened to my stories between 3 and 7 a.m. After all, what else is a traveler supposed to do when jet lag strikes, if not chat at the hotel reception? And of course, dear Nysaa, quiet and almost invisible in the best possible way, whose hard work ensured that breakfast was always fresh and welcoming. To everyone at the Fitzgerald Hotel: you are wonderful. You turned a hotel stay into a human experience. I sincerely hope to come back one day.

    Now the building is clearly old and so are the rooms, you have carpet on the floor, chipped walls and decorations that is a bit outdated. However for the price I was not expecting something much different. Toiletries were nice, you have big bottles of shampoo/bodywash/conditioner on the wall of the shower, as well as a bar of handsoap. Towels were clean and so were the sheets. Overall the room was clean, it is just looking quite old. You have a fan the Ceiling so it cools down the room quite quick which was nice after long days of visits. Calling the breakfast « Continental » is a bit exaggerated. As much as it is always nice to get something to eat in the morning, cornflakes, toast, fruits and coffee/tea is all you will find. No pastries, no eggs, no bacon or meat of any sort. But again for the price, I was not that surprised. The only « big » issue to me was the noise. Walls are far from soundproof so you hear everything, especially the elevator door. If you don’t care much about the room I would definitely recommend this Hotel. I was out at 8AM and was coming back at 9PM just to sleep. However if you are the kind of person who enjoys staying a lot in your Hotel room, you might want to pick a different one.

Breakfast included but we missed it; cucumber water in the reception area was spot on - ice downstairs was adequately cold and plentiful. Overall good value and clean, we enjoyed our stay.

It would be nice if the staff would caution guests who arrive late at night to be mindful of their noise. I was awakened 2 different nights by loud talking and other noises that lasted quite a while.

    Breakfast was good and although not a huge choice was ample. Great location. I had booked from 22nd to 26th April as we would get off cruise ship early in the day of 23rd and we would be able to access our room early on 23rd. When we arrived someone had just vacated the room and it was not ready for us. It had been double booked for the night of the 22nd. I asked for a refund for the night or at the very least an upgrade but nothing was offered.

    Would not recommend. Staff didn’t talk to you, wouldn’t even raise their head when you walked past. The room was tiny, you walk in the door and your bed is right there. The door into the hall you could almost see the hallway. The bathroom door wouldn’t close at all. The fan wobbled so much we were afraid it was going to fall down on us, the room was very hot with no ac so the fan was our only option. There was no way to escape in the event of a fire in the hall. After the amount of walking you do we wanted to come back and relax and watch some tv. The tv kept pausing every 4 minutes and the remotes barely worked . The breakfast was very basic, brown bread with only jam no peanut butter. Two different kinds of oatmeal and some gross looking fruit. Even for the price I would not recommend staying here.

    The desk person I talked with was fine, and the room was clean. However, it was a particularly warm couple of days in SF, and the room only had heating, no cooling, and no ceiling fan. So we were sweating all night, even with the little desk fan we found in the closet. You can't open the window either because it has no screen, and it also opens directly out to a fire escape that is accessible from the floors above, so anyone higher than you could get into your room. The mattress was hard and the pillows were uncomfortable. Me and my friend, who had a different room, both woke up with neck pain. The worst part of the stay, however, was the crazy homeless lady in the alley right outside the window. She was screaming incoherently literally all night, loud enough that you could hear her through the closed window and with the fan on. It only stopped when the sun came up. I understand that the herbalist lady is not part of the hotel, but they had a security person, maybe they could have sent him back there, I don't know. Overall, it was an uncomfortable stay.

    Rooms are very small and out dated. There is no AC and the complimentary breakfast is toast and cornflakes. The elevator is the old school open the door pull back the gate you are lucky if you fit in with your luggage. But the place was clean, the staff friendly and the location pretty central. Guess it depends where you want to spend your money.

    It has almost everything you need if you are traveling on your own and mostly just stay for the night. The mattress is decent; good hot water; provides disposable cups and hairdryer; provides body wash, shampoo, and conditioner. Also great location, convenient to go everywhere and come back. The room I am staying has a window that faces a small vertical ‘tunnel’: you get fresh air, but only very little of them. The power sockets are located at awkward positions. No small toothpaste is provided. The bed sheet is not the best. The fridge in my room makes noise at night. Also there is no microwave in my room. Breakfast is very basic but if you know in advance it’s not a big deal.

As I stated in what I did like there was a man that worked nights the first two nights that we were there that was awesome however the daytime early morning gentleman was very rude and I didn't appreciate that the only other thing that was very surprising was how small the room was these rooms are very very small if you get a two bed and it's literally two beds in a room that should only have one and there is no closet if you want to hang something up you open up this what you think is a closet and you can literally only put one coat in it sideways so as far as being a bigger room or anything like that it is not do not count on it three people in the two bedroom was too many it's that small

    The breakfast was very limited and other than the most basic that I remember seeing at a breakfast buffet. The elevator is always not functioning correctly. The door in the lobby does not close properly leaving the entire system down. I was on the 6th floor and being 67 years old, did not appreciate having to walk down for the past two days. Not a place that I would recommend.

    Location and price were good, Generally it seems better to stay up a little further towards top of Nob Hill to have fewer vagrants as well so that was a minus on the location, but not their fault and SF is getting better. The desk was manned 24/7 and the staff was friendly. They accomodated my room change for less noise. The automated wake up service was a little off (was set to East Coast time). Decor wasn't as good (tacky ceiling fans, etc.) Location would be better one or two stops up Nob Hill.

    The only thing I would suggest is that they should warn at check in that we need to request the room to be cleaned in advance. We didn't know to put hand the card on the door and when we requested it from a housekeeper who was cleaning a room in the same floor, she told us she couldn't do it, because she had already cleaned all the ones they told her about. Other than that, the hotel is very conveniently located and the rooms are alright.

Im aware this is an old building; however, the staff does a great job in cleaning, you can chose to have housekeeping every day. Had a mini fridge and a full bathroom (with tub), which was very convenient. There's also free continental breakfast from.7am to 10am.

We checked out the next day and moved hotels for the rest of our trip.

    There's some sort of a club behind the hotel so the back rooms are quite noisy at night. The breakfast is very basic (toast, cereal, fruit, yogurt. coffee) but still, it's a nice convenience which gives this hotel an advantage over similar hotels because you don't have to waste time going out in search of coffee and breakfast. The room and bathroom are clean, no complaints at all. The elevator is really old, the type where you have to hold the door open with one hand while pushing the accordian gate aside with another hand, so try to get a lower floor if you can and just use the stairs. Overall, if you can accept these quirks, the hotel is a good value

The room was old but very clean. The bathroom was spotless and had great hot water and pressure . The location was perfect. My only complaint is the electrical outlets need to be replaced as my phone charger kept falling out of the sockets. I would stay here again , but I would ask for a rear room. The street noise can be pretty loud , not a fault of the hotel, it's in a busy neighborhood. Thanks for a nice stay .

Bad: - No bathtub (as advertised). - no insulated/quiet rooms. there is an inch of space under the door. You can hear people in the corridor. - breakfast is useless. I was expecting more than a glass of orange juice and a toast. - Sheets are cotton but not Egyptian cotton.

    Structurally it’s an old hotel so rooms are small, but it really needs an upgrade of carpet, room paint and decor. Just because the building is old the premises don’t have to look poor and dumpy. The lobby is small and has one chair, which is old, dirty looking and cracked. Given the conditions this is probably a one star hotel. Rooms were clean and staff was helpful.

    This is an older hotel and we were concerned that there was no a/c because it was warmer when we were visiting. We worried for nothing because all of our rooms had ceiling fans and windows that actually open to allow a breeze to come in. We were quite comfortable! The area was perfect for us and what we were there for, walking to restaurants, stores, and bus stops was quite simple. The breakfast was basic and didn't work for our group, but that was ok with us. The staff were phenomenal and helped us out anyway they could. Would definitly stay here again.

    Stayed here for a night in the SF. Service desk was frustrating. Guest told us to just park outside, there was no parking. We would’ve had to double park. We were two rooms, expecting them to be together, nope different floors. The card key for one of the rooms didn’t work, instead we had to go back down stairs and were given an actual key. The front desk person was inpatient and rude. The rooms were old and grungy. We picked this hotel because it offered a European vibe. The sink in our bathroom was cracked and falling off the wall, there was mold above the shower. The house cleaners spray a lot of room spray to make it smell clean. The beds are spring and squeak anytime anyone moves. The continental breakfast was sliced bread, cereal and yogurt. All in all, we won’t be staying here again.

    This is a standard 2 star hotel. Rooms are small, mine barely fit a double bed. The elevator is slow and cumbersome so i advise the stairs. Private bathrooms that were surprisingly clean, and i say surprisingly b/c i was met with a roach as soon as i entered the room. Freaked me out a bit but was there 2 nights and didnt see another the rest of the stay. Furniture was really worn nightstand showed exposed warped wood through its worn paint, but mini frig wasnt so mini and had a proper freezer with its own door above the frig. The continental breakfasr was nothing to write home about, BUT these days its nice that they are still providing breakfast. They need to update the flooring both in the rooms and hall for a cleaner look and the one piece of furniture (nightstand) could easily be given a fresh coat of paint/stain to make it look less run down.

    The hotel is definitely dated. Basic services. Checking in was pretty flawless. Room was your basic room and amenities which we were aware of. Problem we had was we were sleeping Saturday night and all of a sudden we thought we heard rain but it wasn’t. It was water leaking from the fire sprinkler outlet in the bathroom. Had to place trash cans and towels all on the floor. Then actual ceiling was leaking and paint bubbling. We called the front desk and they said they would send one of the guys up. Well they never sent anybody to fix it after we waited over 2 hours. Called again and no answer. We finally just placed towels and ice buckets and trash cans and ice buckets where water was coming from. Had to cover yourself with towels in order to use the toilet. Went to checkout on Sunday and informed them again we were disappointed that we never received any information or communication regarding them fixing it or moving us to another location. He seemed confused that no one addressed the issue. He said thanks for letting them know. After talking to the front desk, he said he’ll give us a $20.00 for our troubles. I/we are not sure if we would recommend or stay here again. 😳

And all the complaints about a free - yes FREE!! - breakfast in a 2 * hotel are baffling. What do you expect - vintage champagne, lobster and caviar? Besides, you really should be eating at one on San Francisco's countless superb eateries instead of filling up on dry muffins and cornflakes. Great hotel, 5 * all the way.
