Hotel Epik

Excellent Stay — Outstanding Service from Moji! I had a wonderful stay at Hotel EPIK. The highlight was the exceptional service from Moji, the morning front-desk agent. He was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always willing to help with anything I needed. His warm attitude truly elevated my experience. The room was beautiful, spotless, and very well designed — a perfect place to relax after exploring the city. The location is also great, with easy access to nearby attractions and transportation. I really appreciated the 24-hour coffee machine, which was a fantastic touch and very convenient. The breakfast is simple, but definitely enough to start the day on a good note. Overall, great service, great rooms, and great value. I would absolutely stay here again!

Rooms are standard but my review is for the surrounding area. Given that it is near the tenderloin, I would not stay there alone as a woman or even as a family with wife and daughter. I stayed one night alone and my intuition told me to leave. And also because a man was knocking on a door loudly for the longest time yelling to be let in. The price is decent for a reason. Spend a little more to feel safer.

Only book if you don't have a sense of smell. The lobby has a strong chemical smell and the rooms EVEN MORE SO. It's SO BAD. I figured out on the second day that it might have been the air freshener that was turned up to maximum (so unnecessary in such small rooms). On the first night, I could taste the smell. It was so bad I did my best not to be in the room. It was supposed to be my resting place but it was torture. I booked three nights but only stayed one. I couldn't take it. The desk clerk didn't ask why I was checking out so early--I guess why would they care, right. I didn't report it because even after pulling out the air freshener, the smell lingered so badly, there was no way it was going away and I assume all the rooms were like this because the lobby was as well. The smell lingered on my luggage for a few days after I left. I'm so glad I left because all my clothes would have smelled too. -There was zero water pressure in the sink. -The continental breakfast was simply adequate. -There are no blackout curtains like I'm used to in hotels. -The walls are VERY thin and I could hear everything that the other guests were doing. Lucky I had a sound machine. -GPS signal is not great so if you're walking/relying on buses, at least look like you know where you're going until you get your bearings. -Much of the city's unhoused population is in the civic center area. All the above would have been reasonable for the price, but NOT THE SMELL.

Came with my wife and everything was clean and organized. The rooms are small but everything looks like new . Service excellent and free breakfast. The only bad thing is the location close to tenderloin street ( tons of homeless). I’m not a picky person so this place was good enough for my stay in SF .

My girlfriend and I have came here twice and the second time around has been alright despite the look of the room. While it is clean, the faucets was loose and the shower seal was coming undone. As for the area, If you're not afraid of a rougher neighbor then come on over. It may be scary at first but there are plenty of places to go and it's a short walk to Japan town, if you're interested in something like that. Also they got a sweet coffee machine and I can honestly say I love having cappuccino every morning. So if you want somewhere that's cheap and rest your head. This is the spot.
