YOTEL San Francisco
Bring an eye mask, the fire suppression system had a flashing light right by the bed. No toilet privacy in loft room but great for a solo traveler. Very convenient to the BART, Muni rail, and F streetcar. Most won't want to stroll the immediate area much, but there is a nice little Parisian cafe ...
