Perfect for solo travellers who don't plan on staying in the hotel all day.comfy beds,clean toilets and showers. Location is good.room is small but it was enough if you are onlythere for sightseeing.staff are very friendly and helpful

The street it was on was not the best but it was close to a lot of places to see.

very good location, a nice and comfortable little room. I absolutely recommend it, especially if it’s just for a couple of days. Just keep in mind that you share toilets and the shower, they are not in the room but that didn’t bother me. The staff is super friendly and extremely helpful.

It was OK for the price. Centrally located downtown. The reception is very friendly.

Around there are many homeless and drug addicts, but they didnt bother me nor were somehow approaching me.

It's the best that you get in downtown SF for this number of stars hotel

It's the best you can expect for this hotel accomodation style, the people that work in there are very kind and helpfull

It's on the verge of the tenderloin zone which is not reccomended at all in SF

Can’t wait to leave it.

Location is not bad

This is the first time I booked a place with shared bathroom and rest room probably I shouldn’t have. the reviews on booking.com website weren't bad so I booked it. The first sight of the place shocked me with a shabby locked grille door, narrow, small hallway and dirty carpet, the reception is a tiny window and the room is the same size as the prison cell I visited on Alcatraz trip. When I opened the door to my assigned room, a strong sweat smell greeted me and I told the staff about it and asked for an air refresher and he brought me a fabric spray for the purpose. As a Chinese, I drink boiled water but there is no jug in the room so I asked for one and the staff hurriedly sorted out one coffee maker which he apparently washed hurriedly but still have heavy stains which I tried to wash off in my 5 nights stay but couldn’t get rid of. Apparently the staff tried to make things better for me although they don’t have enough resources of equipment or such. The place is so old and dirty so I feel very uncomfortable and tried not to touch anything. Staff are nice but it can not changed the fact that the place is substandard even by 3rd world country standard. The budget price doesn’t mean such a poor facility is OK.

Ver is wonderful and very professional.

I loved the location. Not far from Union Square.

Walls are very thin and some guests don’t take into consideration there are other people there (not the hotels fault).

great budget option in convenient location and feels like home . Loved it.

first of all was greeted by the owner, who was so lovely, made me feel very welcome, advised on how to best spend my few days in san francisco, gave me map, advise what to do and where not to go. The room was very clean, quiet and felt warm (in a good way). shared bathroom and toilet were very clean and not too many people sharing with. The hotel was 10 min walk to Union square and just slightly more to the closest train station (there direct train to the airport) so very easy commute.

everything was great

Amazing!

Luz Hotel is nearby Union Square, in a point that allow you to visit the most common places by walking (anyway there is the bus stop just opposite the hotel). Personally, I visited the city by walking. The staff were amazing! They gave me a map of the city and explained me the places that I could visit! I really appreciated everything!

Everything is fine for me!

Great location!

I love the location very convenient and easy to get here from SFO Airport by taking BART. Close to Hop On Hop Off Tour Bus and Cable Car Station. Owner is very welcoming and friendly staffs. Reasonable price.

It's an old building so you can hear noises especially from the 2nd floor and bed is noisy.

Staff is really nice at Luz Hotel. Location is rather central. the hotel is very safe. the area also is safe for my standards, but there is visible poverty on some streets in the area. If that is a problem for you, avoid Ellis and O'Farrell St, and stick to Geary St, for example when taking BART train from airport and getting off at Powell. Little Saigon is very close, and there are several very good cheap Vietnamese restaurants. Bike-sharing bikes can easily be found nearby the Luz Hotel.

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Very central location and the bed was clean.

The insulation wasn't great so you could hear everything from the corridor or other rooms. Whilst it was clean, it was very worn and my room didn't look like the photo.

Fair place to sleep in San Francisco

Good location and very friendly staff

The temperature inside the room/hallway/bathrooms was pretty cold and it was not the cleanest hotel I’ve seen
