  + - Proche de Union Square donc très pratique pour visiter SF. - Laverie dispo et cuisine dispo - chambre confortable

  − - Attention à la proximité avec Tenderloin ! - Il n’y a pas de machine de change (billets - pièces) pour la machine à laver, ni de lessive à acheter sur place. - la cuisine n’est pas équipée (même pas de bols, d’assiettes ou de couverts) - pas de ménage durant le séjour - personne à la réception : il faut se rendre à l’hôtel de la rue d’après pour faire le Check in

  Simple rooms, more like a nice motel

  + Good sized room

  − Room and hotel smelt. No aircon. No reception in building.

  Alloggio budget friendly, poche pretese

  + La posizione è comoda perché è dietro la piazza principale ma non mi sono sentita sicura perché in zona ci sono molti senzatetto, anche davanti al portone d’ingresso dell’hotel. La mancanza assoluta di personale o reception aumenta la sensazione di insicurezza. Per fare il check-in bisogna attraversare la strada e rivolgersi alla reception di un altro hotel perché non c’è nessuno al Bartlett. Quindi servizi 0. La camera era carina ma affacciata su vicolo con i condizionatori di altri palazzi e quindi per tutta la notte si sentiva rumore costante perché le finestre sono sottili e non insonorizzate. Lo consiglierei solo se si ha un grande spirito di adattamento, poche pretese, per alloggi brevi e con basso budget. Altrimenti andate altrove!

  Great value for the bay. Amazing location. Decent facilities.

  + It’s in a really well located area. Who’s coming from SFO and moving afterwards to another part of the Bay Area like me it was perfect.

  − The fact that it didn’t have AC it was weird at first but the weather helps a lot. Another thing is the weird checkin that is in another hotel (however they were really friendly and my both interactions with them were nice).
