Music City Hotel - Home of the San Francisco Music Hall of Fame

A good hotel with great location and affordable price.

It's an excellent hostel: it's clean, it has a bar with live music almost every night, and is in a good neighbourhood. I also liked the breakfast they offer. The only bad side is that the mattress and pillows weren't so bad that caused some pain in my neck.

Great stay at the Music City hotel. Even for a couple of oldies. Staff were super friendly and the Janis Joplin room was quirky and fun. Hotel is in a good location to get around. Music was great and couldn't be heard on the second floor, when we needed some sleep. Would definitely recommend as being great value. Thanks guys for making us so welcome

I really wasn't sure how much I'd like my stay at this place, but overall it was a great experience. For reference, I stayed in the Janice Joplin room (Private bedroom with Private bathroom) The Good - Convenient - Within a 5 min walk to bus lines to get you to BART station. - Clean - No bugs, no bad smells, no mold. - Affordable - You really can't beat the price when most hotels are going for 200 a night that are a 5 minute walk away. - Neighborhood - Keep in mind this is San Fran, so while not "clean" I never felt threatened or in danger nor was I ever bothered by the homeless folks around the area. Lots of food options, even late at night. - The Building - Really cool set up, you can literally spend an hour or two in the halls learning about the music history there. Really nice to have when the cleaning team is still in your room. There is a live rehearsal studio in the building so you can sometimes hear them playing. Very colorful and chill. - The Staff - Everyone that I interacted with was friendly. The cleaning crew was friendly and flexible to my needs and came back later when I asked. I did not have any issues with items or money I left out disappearing. Check In and Out - You can do it online to expedite the process! Makes it really smooth going in and out. The bad - The Shower - In my room, the shower was very small. Elbows out and I was hitting a wall in any direction. Not a huge deal, but it just means you aren't in it for long. - No Fan - I knew going into the stay that A/C isn't really used and is building controlled, but it would've been nice if there was a ceiling fan or some other option. Windows were able to be left open which was nice! - Noise - The ONLY complaint I have about noise is the shared bathroom that was next to mine. I could hear EVERYTHING happening in that bathroom, at the beginning I thought they were actually in my bathroom. There was some music during the day (you're in a music themed hotel so expect it), but everything was super quiet in the halls at night. No elevator - At least I didn't find one. And it's a looong ways up to the 200 level. The gentlemen at the front desk did help me take my bag up the second flight of stairs, but it's a haul with your stuff. Overall - I would definitely recommend a stay here in a Private Room. I can't attest to the shared space rooms, but it was quiet, affordable, and clean during my stay. If I come back to San Fran I would gladly stay here again.

We stayed in the private Janis Joplin suite and had no complaints! Space was very clean, furniture was nice. Bathroom was spacious and clean. Very quite. Recommend to anyone who just wants a base to check out the city!

Nice people & rooms. Lots of little eateries in the area. Rocker vibe with good local bands & interesting artwork. Very responsive management cares about the place. A good jumping off point on bus 19,
