It’s great that you can play the guitar and amp in the room. The bathrooms are fine, but the electronic key opens the door even if someone is in there. They should have a manual lock on the inside so nobody can enter while you are in there

Great place great price!

Great place! Live music fun atmosphere and the rooms are clean and welcoming. Comfortable beds and linens.
Jason, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The music decor was very cool. We stayed in the Metallica room. They had pictures of various San Francisco bands and a brief history about them. The shared bathroom was a different experience but not bad. The check in hostess was amazing and very friendly. There is live music downstairs to enjoy at no extra charge.

4/10 Poor

First they booked me in an all female room, the lady manager with no basic human manners yell at me to get out of the room or she's call the police. She have a guest to talk to me, all this happened at 1:30 am. I have to waited in the small coffee room until 8:00am for the morning manager to rebooked me in a different all male room so I did. I NEVER SLEEP THERE UNTIL THE CHECKOUT DAY, turn in the keys and I was out of there, never returned, never recommended, never stayed here again.

6/10 Okay

I really liked the place, its idea is very innovative. My flight was delayed and they helped me with late check-in, which I really appreciated. The only problem I had was with the card/key. It only worked one day, I had to arrive very late and leave very early and there was no one in reception to help me. I had to ask the kind cleaning ladies to help me open the bathroom and bedroom doors.
Diana, 2-night trip

8/10 Good
