My stay at The Monarch Hotel was a mixed bag. While the location was convenient for exploring San Francisco and I appreciated the old-fashioned charm, the issues with safety and room quality really detracted from my overall experience. 🏨

The room itself felt cramped and lacked basic amenities like a refrigerator or adequate heating. I also encountered issues with the door not closing properly, which made me feel quite insecure during my stay. 🛏️

I found the staff's response to security issues lacking. When I reported my concerns about the door not locking properly, I felt dismissed, and there was a significant absence of care regarding my safety.

The location, while central and close to Union Square, is in a disadvantaged area with visible homeless populations nearby. It felt a bit gritty and unsafe, especially at night.

My stay at The Monarch Hotel had its ups and downs. While the location was great for accessing the city hall and downtown, I didn't feel entirely safe walking from the train station due to the homeless encampments nearby. The room itself was comfortable and spacious, but there were a few cleanliness issues and the bathroom lacked hot water. Overall, it had character but there were some areas in need of improvement.
