What guests say
6.2 / 10 · Pleasant on Booking.com, from 79 guest reviews
Windsor Hotel delivers clean, well-maintained rooms and genuinely friendly staff at budget prices in a central San Francisco location—making it good value for money. However, the property is severely undermined by its location on a street with significant homelessness and street activity, leading to noise disturbances at night and safety concerns that deter some guests entirely. Infrastructure limitations (weak hot water, limited shared facilities, no A/C) and the hostel-like dorm setup further compromise comfort.
