โรงแรมฟีนิกซ์, ซานฟรานซิสโก

I loved this place! We stayed here to decomp after burning man and didn't get looked at weird when we showed up dusty. The courtyard is a great mini resort vibe for maximum relaxation. The heated pool is the best. People say negative things about the area but whatever. I didn't feel uncomfortable, the street people were just chatting and laughing amongst themselves whenever I walked by any of them. Keep your wits about you, but try to kill stigma. We will be staying here next year after the burn as well! 5 minute walk from where the Burner Express Bus dropped us off!

Great Friendly Hotel recommendations for restaurants etc. were spot on. The restaurant on site was really good for evenings (shame closed on a Monday) Sad about the many living on the streets nearby (but that's a State problem)

The Phoenix is awesome. Excellent service, wonderful vintage inspired aesthetic everywhere and the pool is open until midnight on weekends! The bar was hopping and the restaurant food was AMAZING (we had 2 breakfasts). And nothing on the menu was over 20 bucks! The only hiccup was that a wall outlet randomly quit for about 12 hours...then worked again. And the free internet is a bit slow so I’d recommend shelling out the 6 or so bucks for the higher speed internet. There was a loud argument next to and outside our door one night, which was handled swiftly and calmly by security. I felt very safe the entire stay. The area, as expected, was not somewhere I’d want to walk alone at night but no one bothered my friend and I during our walk to Muni in the morning. We did kick aside a few used needles...so keep your wits about you, but don’t be paranoid. People also help each other in the tenderloin so we kept up that spirit and offered our leftovers of food, which were greatly appreciated by the people who partook.

Was amazing

Super comfy bed, great pillows, very cool retro vibe and lively atmosphere, friendly staff, good restaurant and bar on premises, free parking on site. We plan to come back and stay longer!
