The Cable Car Court Hotel

Prós: Rooms on the front street will be noisy (expect this as the tram rolls past frequently untill 1am). We didn't mind the noise of traffic and liked the location as it was very easy to jump on the ...

Contras: No kettle of hot drink facilities. Towels are way too small. Room needed blackout curtains as the blinds were broken and inadequate. Shower room sliding door needs a proper handle, to open it with ...

Contras: It could be a little cleaner, especially in the bathroom.

Prós: Philip the manager was lovely and very helpful! We felt well looked after and accommodated.

Good place on a budget

Prós: It's location was ok. Pretty much in the middle of all the sites. It got the job done as a place to lay at night. I felt safe enough with the metal gate and a security guard at night. I rented a car and street parking, while free at night, was kinda hard. but very doable. 3 straight nights i found free meter (9pm-9am) parking within 3 blocks of the hotel. While there was a lot of bums, they seem harmless enough, but there was a lot. Hotel staff wasn't answering the door when we first arrived but eventually got in after several calls and ringing the bell over ad over. I'd defiantly stay at better place in a better area if i ever go back to SF, but for the price it was good.

Contras: Didn't like that i had to call and ring the bell over and over until i got in. Location is right near tenderloin with all the crazy bums.
