Europa Hotel

Location.

TV did not work and I couldn't figure out how to get it to work. Also the window did not have any screen and there were many pigeons right outside ready to come in.

The location was the biggest benefit. I was right between Chinatown and Little Italy, so there was plenty to see and do. Public transportation was very convenient, and parts of downtown were within walking distance.

I didn't like that the hotel was a two-story walk-up, as I was carrying a heavy suitcase. The bathroom was tiny; a literal water closet with the toilet paper roll dispenser TAPED to the wall. (Apparently it was broken and not properly repaired.) There were no ironing boards or washcloths, and cleaning was only done upon request. My only complaint about the location is that the hotel is right next to a famous "gentlemen's club" and downhill from a busy liquor store, so nights were noisy. Fortunately, I closed my window and blocked out some of the noise, but it usually took hours for things to quiet down. Overall, Europa Hotel was merely a place to lay my head for six days in San Francisco. I've stayed at better hotels in this city for less and enjoyed much better amenities. I got by with this place, but I wouldn't stay here again if I could help it.
