Aida Plaza Hotel

Hotel is a good value. Rooms are fine. Lobby and hallways very nice. Mybe not perfect for a female by herself, but guys or pairs will be quite comfortable.

The City itself hurts the hotel...there are sooooo many homeless encampments around it is crazy!

The perfect budget option for downtown SF. Yep, it's a 2-star hotel, so set your expectations accordingly. But if you're up for sharing a bathroom and don't want to spend money, this is a phenomenally great option.

Could add some bathroom amenities, like a place to set your room key. I don't understand why there aren't any hooks in the showers, for example! Or a shelf to place your key.

Comfy room, quiet. The Tea/coffee and donuts in the morning can be very convenient, and the room is located walking distance from the center (Union Square, CHina Town etc)

Occasionally the heater could be noisy during the night, but this was common in other hostel in San Francisco. No major other problem. Sadly, homeless people are quite frequent in this area but not harassing.
