    crowded feel

    Comfortable and Stylish Getaway in the Castro

    I absolutely loved my stay in the Deluxe King Studio, which was gorgeously designed and very comfortable. The balcony facing the garden was a perfect spot for my morning coffee, immersing me in the local vibe. The rooftop views were incredible, especially during sunset, and I appreciated the ease of self-check-in through the app. However, the soundproofing could use some improvement as I could hear noise from neighboring rooms, but that's typical in many hotels.

    rooftop views
    vibrant location
    compact room
    impersonal setup

    Loved the vibrant location and stunning rooftop views that made evenings delightful. The room was compact, and I missed having a traditional front desk. While communication was efficient, the setup felt a bit impersonal. Overall, a solid choice with room for improvement.

    comfortable bed
    bright clean room
    amazing rooftop views
    noise from above

    The Deluxe King Studio was super comfy! The bed was heavenly and the room was bright and clean. I loved having a little balcony to sip coffee in the morning, overlooking peaceful gardens. The rooftop views were amazing, great for catching sunsets. I did hear some noise from above but it wasn't too bad. Plus, the virtual check-in made everything easy and private!

    stunning sunset
    easy self-check-in

    Solo travelers beware, cozy haven

    I had a lovely time, especially soaking in the rooftop views during sunset—so perfect for reflecting on my decisions and plotting my next move. The self-check-in made everything easy, no awkward small talk like I could care less about, just me and my thoughts.

    It wasn't exactly affordable but honestly, I got what I paid for.

    lovely stay with just a few minor quirks

    The rooftop views were stunning, giving a breathtaking perspective of the sunset. The virtual check-in process simplified my arrival and stay, perfectly catering to my preferences for privacy.

    However, I did hear some noise from the guests above me during my stay.

    I loved my stay! The view from the rooftop was absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. 🌅 The room was cozy, but the shower water could have been warmer.

    fresh sushi
    central location
    awesome rooftop
    tiny fridge
    no front desk

    OMG, the food scene here is off the charts! I hit up Takara Sushi just a block away—beyond fresh! Plus, the hotel's central location makes hitting up Harvey's and Toad Hall a breeze, all while basking in that Castro vibe. And let's not forget the awesome air conditioning and that fabulous rooftop view!

    Okay, a few quirks, the mini-fridge is tiny and the rooms are snug, so pack light! Also, not having a front desk can be a bit odd, but their rapid responses saved the day. Still, totally worth it!

    cozy balcony
    stunning rooftop views
    electric fire pit
    out of order elevator

    I absolutely loved my stay here, especially lounging on the cozy balcony and soaking in the stunning rooftop views. The self-check-in was a breeze, and having an electric fire pit to enjoy at night was such a nice touch. I did find the elevator out of order during my visit, which was a bit of a hiccup, but overall, I can't wait to come back! 🌅

    comfortable beds
    small room
    kitchenette issue
    elevator malfunction

    The stay included a delightful balcony view overlooking gardens, enhancing the boutique hotel experience. Sleep quality was excellent thanks to the fabulously comfortable beds. However, the room was smaller than anticipated, and the lack of a proper kitchenette made storing food challenging. Though the elevator had issues during the visit, the response from the staff was commendable.

    cumbersome process
    no physical front desk

    my stay at castro was incredible. the room was stunning, and i loved the cozy balcony overlooking the garden. the location in the heart of the lgbtqia+ community made my visit to san francisco feel truly special.

    the self-check-in process was cumbersome.
