Pension San Francisco

The proximity to the Metro stop - U1.

We had 2 separate bookings, the first one for 2 nights and the 2nd one for 1 night - but online the room looked the same for both bookings. We get there and the room is about half the size of what the description said, with a double bed inserted between 2 walls, without any room on either side of the bed to get in or out - the only option to get to your pillow was to crawl from the bottom of the bed towards the top. No night stand for this double bed just a narrow short shelf above the pillow with a lamp on it. AC? Sure, in the description only. There is a unit on the wall, however there is no remote and as we tried turning it on from the unit itself, it didn't work. However, there was a short desk ventilator provided in this first room. I messaged the owner via booking, in English as I don't speak German. Every message I got back was in German and I had to Google translate it to figure out what was said. The following night they moved us into the room that matched the pictures we saw on booking.com when we booked it - better room for sure, larger, you could easily get into bed on either side, nightstands on each side, still no AC, though, a floor ventilator in this one. And a corner bathtub with no enclosure - the whole bathroom floor gets wet for a shower, making it quite slippery - beware. We had the corner room for 3 people. Large, good space, this I found to match what we booked according to the pictures, but the first one, an absolute disappointment, very small with very little space for luggage or to move around and especially with the bed tucked between 2 walls that is a no no for me. The area - a lot of loud people on the street around the property until late at night. As soon as you get out of the room into the main lobby it stinks like fried Chinese/ Asian style food - there's a restaurant down there with a shared courtyard where the workers go out for some air - I love food, but the smells were overwhelming.

Bett nicht bequem zum schlafen, nicht komplett sauber

Close to the central train station - around 15 minutes on foot. The place was clean. Had a good shower. The property is a bit tricky to access, but the host provides very detailed instructions on how to find the correct door. You can check in yourself outside of the reception's working hours.

It's one of the cheaper properties around, so you get what you pay for: the room is small, a bit dated, windows look at a busy street, fan instead of a/c.

Location is good but noisy. It was clean.

There is no AC. It is in noisy area.
