Mithila Hotel - San Francisco

I guess it gives the service for what you are paying for. Great location, cheap stay but be prepared for a very small room, not pretty at all and kind of dirty. Parking is a block away an it costs $16 if you leave the car there for couple days without moving it.

I really was counting on a cups of Coffe but at 7am not ready? sevice no good she seem like she didnot want to be at work?

Modest, clean, friendly young staff--delightful antique elevator that, like it's occupant, creaked and rattled it's way slowly to the destination.

Hotel room was much better than I expected. Hotel recently repainted - or kept up very well. Bathroom featured relatively new remodeling - new tile floors and showers. Keep your overall expectations in line for the budget conscious price - but overall I would stay there again.

We arrived at 3 am, luckily we contacted the hotel to confirm a late checkin. Parking was frustrating since we got there late, all the parking garages were closed. Had to park on the street and wake up a few hours to avoid a ticket. Other than it being a small hotel, didn't expect it, but it worked and everything was figured out.

If you choose something cheaper, dont be suprised that it's a basic hotel. Very old furnitures, not too clean at all. I mean coffee and other (???) leaks and hole on bed linen, strange 'old' smell in the very tiny room etc. Breakfast is very basic and can be eaten/drunk back in your room or as standing in front of the tiny reception area. The only […] positive thing is the relatively good area. Read more

Personally i don't want to visit this hotel again as i had very bad experience. The hotel room do not have fan or AC, bad part is they made holes on the wall, there is no window for it. the bed and blankets are not washed. On the day i suppose to vacate i was out, the hotel management called me and said that i have vacate the room otherwise they will […] charge $200, it's very bad. Only good part of it is location.

Small room, a little rundown but clean and close to downtown, cable car. Electrical upgrade would be good. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This place was so Horrible, we checked in saw the room, then went down a flight of stairs down a long hallway to find the one rest room for the whole hotel. The shared bathroom is one toilet and a sink. It was disgusting, dirty I could barely even look. The shower don't get me started! It was so nasty! We checked out right away & found another hotel […] to stay at for the night. Read more

Older hotel similar to what I see in Europe with the usual small hallways and stairs. Charming little cage elevator and odd shaped closets. It was within walking distance (10 blocks) from the BART and just a few blocks from the event I was attending in downtown so the location was excellent. If the event is in the same location next year, I shall certainly […] check to see if this hotel is available also should I go. Read more

The room smelled very bad. Like mold. The windows ha no screens and had to be propped open. The water in the shower never got warm. The light up Mirror didn't work. The wifi d not work even when I called for assistance. In the middle of the morning maintenance knocked on our door because there was a water leak downstairs comig from our radiator. The […] beds are uncomfortable. No parking at the hotel oak $30 to park 2 blocks away. No help with the luggage. Elevator door wouldn't stay open. Very Marie hallways. I would never stay here again.

The staff definitely makes an effort to be professional and keep the rooms clean, but I would only recommend this hotel if you have no other choices for a place to stay in SF. The neighborhood is very sketchy and the rooms reek of something that I can't quite describe.

Genuine Expedia guest review

It was dirty and that it smelled bad. The curtins looked like they had not been cleaned in years. It smelled so bad that I kept my window open, and the noise from outside kept me up. By 2:30 in the morning I had not gotten to sleep. So I packed up my things and went home. So I did not even stay overnight. Actually, I will be blocking charges or requesting […] a refund. Read more

I was a bit apprehensive after reading some negative comments about the Mithila hotel online but needn't have worried. The staff were friendly and helpful and my 4th floor room was small but cosy with a comfortable bed, ensuite bathroom & lovely bay window overlooking the street. True, there were only a few TV channels - but who wants to watch TV when […] there is so much to see and do in San Francisco!! Oh, and if climing a few stairs bothers you, there is actually an elevator to reception. Will definitely be staying at the Mithila next time I'm in town. Read more

The LOCATION is very good. Room (as well as the corridor) is very small and simple with things like hair dryer, microwave, refrigerator. Furniture is old but we didn't really care because just stay for one night. The lift is kind of scary as it is very old style. Wifi is available in room and the signal was very strong. There is a convenient store down […] stairs beside the hotel, where you can easily get waters, fruits, even salad. Will recommend it to others if you are just staying there for 1-2 nights. Read more

It is what it is - inexpensive place with good location. Quiet, nice and helpful staff, Can't beat the price.

I was in town for a San Francisco 49ers game and stayed from Sunday to Monday. Great hotel if you're not going to spend much time indoors. The location is great! It took us about ten minutes to reach Chinatown on foot, and about five to reach the center of Union Square. This hotel provides NO PARKING, so you can either pay a daily rate in a parking […] garage, or try your luck at finding metered (no fee on weekends) parking. Price is pretty reasonable for a room with a private bathroom. Old style, pretty clean, bathroom was spotless. My only complaint was the girl at the front desk with the British accent. She was so rude! The rest of the staff was very kind and helpful, she was just horrible. I would definitely stay here again. Read more

Staff were friendly and helpful. There is free internet and continental breakfast. The hotel is older and does not have all the amenities- hair dryer, air conditioning. Customers must walk up a flight of stairs to check in, then there is an elevator to take you up to your floor. For those using public transportation, it is not close to a BART stop but […] a bus line runs past. Read more

Even at an affordable price, this place it's not your best option when it comes to family vacation. The idea of shared restroom and bathing facilities it's not that appealing. The surrounding area it's full of bums and homeless, but the owners do their best at keeping it clean. Just one more thing, bring all your essentials with you, there's not shaving […] items or toiletries at the front desk. I'll recommend the Bite eaterie that its down the same sidewalk from this hotel. Read more

Staff was nice and the hotel was clean. The bed was comfortable and the location great for being close to Union Square. The worst thing was the TV, first I could not get it to turn on - then once it was on it would not turn off. After going sleepless for some time I managed by some miracle to get it off.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel room was cramped. I was in the "family room" which consisted of a twin, queen, tv and table with only 2 chairs. I was uncomfortable and disappointed. I prefer to support small businesses but next time you'll see may at motel 6 or super 8.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

First of all, if you expect Hilton-like comfort, don't come here. But if you are fine with a small room in a century-old building (with no air conditioning) at a reasonable rate, you'll be happy. I'm a San Francisco native who returns often; this is the second time I've stayed at this hotel. I stayed here during an extraordinarily busy weekend for 1/3 […] the price of the major hotels. The location is great, close to Union Square but far enough up the hill to avoid the worst of the Tenderloin characters. The room was tiny, but that's what you have to expect of the small hotels in this historic neighborhood. There is no air conditioning, but in San Francisco we rarely need it. The hotel was clean, and reasonably nicely decorated. The "continental breakfast" is minimal at best, but for a bargain hotel this was not unexpected. Overall, it was exactly what I hoped for, and I look forward to my next stay. Read more

I was impressed with the cleanliness in the obviously restored interior. It's an old building but it appeared to have been recently cleaned up, painted, etc. I'd stay there again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very tiny room, and the standard "double" ensuite means a rather lumpy bed that might fit two hobbits. It was a warm weekend, so the room was hot; no a/c, but you usually wouldn't need it in S.F. The tiny bars of soap fit in with the overall theme. Oh, well. Good location on a relatively safe street. Not so sure when you get down the hill what you might […] encounter. Up the hill, of course, things get safer because the neighborhood gets richer. I can't speak to the price... it was reasonable only in comparison to other hotels in the area. I haven't been in their rooms, so I can't say what I'm missing. Read more

the hotel was dirty, behind the bathroom door there was a used shower cap and the packing of a used soap, the toilet seat was also dirty. there was coffee and coockies for brakefast which we had to take withourselves to our rooms, but there was no tray or plates... the window of our room was open and we were not able to close it... the only positive […] thing was the price!

I loved this hotel. Those who expressed complaints in other reviews didn't seem to understand what kind of experience they were going to have. This is an old building in a beautiful historic historic neighborhood, originally designed for single room occupancy. It is not a family hotel, and it is not for mickey mouse tourists. It is, on the other hand, […] perfect for single travelers or couples who want to experience a legitimate neighborhood in San Francisco for a few days. Lower Nob Hill (or the Tendernob) is and bustling, with lots of places to eat, coffee shops and bars, and it's a safe, pleasant, ten-minute walk east to Union Square. There are buses to catch nearby, and it is possible to avoid walking south through the seedier part of the Tenderloin, which is down the hill. Just check map or smartphone. My room was small, and the building is slightly cramped, but everything was clean, the shower was great, there were towels, shampoo, soaps, etc. Other reviews stated that you have to bring your own, or that they had to share a bathroom with other guests, but this was not the case for me. Highly recommended for traveling on a budget. Read more

alright, for the price, this hotel is good. Nothing fancy. Just does the job! It was very clean and the staff was helpful. He also printed a paper for me!! :D The neighborhood was fine and I didn't see anything weird. I was never out after 9 PM though! I would say over all a fine place for a couple of days.

Staff was really nice and helpful ! There are better hotels in SF but due to our short booking time it was ok.

Calculate with eating breakfast out every morning - Breakfast consisting of danish and muffins with powder oak meal and coffee not useful at all.

just a tiny crack in the wall cheap motel... to get to your room you have to go up tiny stairs that lead directly to front desk, and you have to check in everytime so if you have any guests with you they have to leave id at desk and no guests after 10... really blows if your trying to get anything going for your night

The place was dingy and old. There is room for much improvements. Like new pillows and blankets. It's really not that expensive to replace.

The facilities were well-maintained but the rooms were very small and freezing at night. The bed sheets didn't fit well and the temperature of the rooms did not improve much even after requesting a change.

It is near to Union Square. Personally, I love walking so i walked to Union Square from the hotel. But, there is a bus stop near by so you can take a bus. If you never beed to San Francisco, you will be surprise that parking is expensive and it is hard to fine one in certain area. So I highly recommend to park your car in a garage(There is a parking […] garage that you can get a discount after you check in the hotel. An this time was the worst experience of all. I couldnt find the street parking and I paid $20 for the overnight parking. I could pay $14 per night because if I could find the street parking and check in the hotel first, then I could park at a cheaper place. Anyway, you have to add parking fee + hotel fee. You have to pay parking seperately almost all hotels in San Francisco, so I highly recommen to call hotels and find out the rates first before you book a hotel. Besides the parking, I really enjoyed SF! I went there by myself as a road trip, and I enjoyed so much. Mithila hotel was my choice because of the location and economical price. I wouldnt spend much money on hotels, especially when i'm on traveling myself for 2weeks. Anyway if you r looking for a cheap but not "too cheap" hotel, i would stay this hotel. Neighborhood was safe and nice. Read more

Hotel is in really nice location, close to everything but not too noisey. The room I stayed is big enough to spend.
