I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was a good deal by SF standards, equipped not only with a TV but also a microwave and refrigerator. It was clean and had all the essentials like a hair dryer and iron. The service, while okay and not conducive to early check-ins, was super friendly, kind, and extraordinarily nice & helpful. The location, though lacking some initial information about room placement, was central and within walking distance of food places and attractions, making it the primary reason for choosing Mithila. Be aware of the neighborhood dynamics with catcalling issues nearby. The dining experience may not meet breakfast expectations as it must be consumed standing up at reception and only consists of Tea, Coffee, and muffins in the morning, which may not align with advertised promises. The hotel is relatively near the city center but in a sketchy area. The hotel offers a delicious Manchego ratatouille; however, don't expect a full breakfast. I found the facilities satisfying.

The hotel is in a convenient location, not far from Union Square with many shops and good restaurants nearby. The rooms had everything we needed and were very clean, but the lack of a fan and a blocked window were minor inconveniences. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff. The dining experience was basic, with burnt coffee and mini muffins, but adequate for a quick bite. The facilities were satisfactory overall.

The hotel's rooms were small but equipped with a TV, microwave, and refrigerator. Despite the cramped space, the constant noise disturbances from other guests made the stay uncomfortable. On the upside, the service was friendly and helpful, though there were instances of rudeness. The location was fairly central with convenient access to local amenities. The dining options were minimal, with only basic beverages and pastries available. The hotel had Laundromat services next door, which was a plus.

I found this hotel to be a mixed bag. While the rooms didn't match the pictures and had a strange smell, they were clean and equipped with convenient amenities like a microwave, fridge, and coffee maker. The service, though initially seeming unfriendly, turned out to be surprisingly warm and welcoming. The location was excellent for exploring San Francisco, situated between Nob Hill and the Tenderloin, with easy access to local amenities. However, the dining experience was subpar, with limited offerings served in an inconvenient manner.

The hotel's rooms were not very clean and faced a building with no views but were quiet. The lighting was dim, and the rooms were a bit on the smaller side, needing refurbishment. The service, however, was friendly and helpful. The location was convenient for walking and accessing transportation. The dining was basic with coffee and tea only. The hotel lacked facilities beyond basic necessities.

The hotel had clean and well-equipped rooms, with a few windows providing views to others during the night. The service was exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to accommodate me and my spouse. While the location felt a bit sketchy at night, it was conveniently close to many food options, though solo female travelers should be cautious. The dining experience offered only basic options but was adequate for a quick breakfast. Overall, a decent choice for a weekend stay with good value for money.

The hotel's location near Union Square and Chinatown is excellent, making it convenient to reach all of San Francisco's main tourist attractions. However, the surrounding neighborhood can feel a little rough in places. The service was okay, but there were some issues with friendliness and honesty during check-in. The dining offering was limited to just tea, coffee, and muffins served in a less-than-ideal location. The rooms could use some serious improvement to meet expectations, with an urgent need for paint removal and attention to detail. Facilities were average and somewhat lacking.

The location of the hotel was decent, situated between the posh Nob Hill and the dodgy Tenderloin neighborhoods, making it central to various activities in downtown San Francisco. The rooms, although not very spacious, were still large enough for two guests and featured conveniences like a TV, microwave, and refrigerator. However, the presence of a homeless/drug problem in the south neighborhood was quite concerning, dampening the overall experience.
