Room was simple but clean. Very friendly and helpful staff. Fridge and microwave provided. Good value for proximity to Union Square. Be aware the street is sketchy at times, but security is good and only 2 blocks to restaurants and shopping.

8/10 Very good

Satisfactory, but know what you're getting

Bare bones, low-cost, but clean and satisfactory Tenderloin hotel. Far more personality than you'll find in your standard Motel 6 type establishment. There is no bathroom within the unit. There appeared to be about 1 or 2 bathrooms per floor (~20 units). Those bathrooms seemed to be pretty inconsistent in terms of locks. But within each bathroom there's a toilet area and a shower area. Things were surprisingly clean when I was there. This could probably be a problem if there were too many people using the bathroom at once, but for a one-night stay, it was fine. As another review pointed out, there's no AC, and no screen on the windows, so it won't be ideal for a summer heatwave. However, there is a heater. We went in September though, so there was no need for either. Bedsheets were all clean and nice. Being able to look out the window at the busy streets of San Francisco was pretty exciting. There's a cafe, a falafel place, multiple corner stores, and much more, immediately outside the hotel. There's also a parking garage around the corner. The hotel was very secure, and only guests were allowed to enter. I love how classic and SF the narrow staircases and stuff were. And yes, there are homeless people in the Tenderloin. Grow up. Overall, definitely satisfactory for a single-night San Francisco trip. But know what you're getting, and don't expect Hilton level amenities.

Completely misrepresented by pictures. Filthy, Unsafe, no toilet/shower in room. The property should be condemned.

Staff were helpful but the room is not air conditioned and you share a bathroom w the other guest. No elevator but the staff had one that was super old and they did help me bring it up to our room. The environment was not the best outside the room. But sf is not the best area. Hotels were booked out for a cyber security conference otherwise I wouldn’t have stayed here.

The area was dreadful and smelled awful. Room was “clean” but bathroom floors needed to be cleaned and there was visible rotting. There was literally noise 24/7. From the I houses arguing on the street, yelling to music blasting all night. 0/10

It’s in the tenderloin of sf so prepare for that. The rooms are cold and make sure to ask for a towel. For the cost maybe worth it but wow that neighborhood is beyond noisy.

Do not stay here unless you have no other choice. One of the worst experiences from all the hotel stays in 2025. Probably better camping outside or in your car then staying here.

2/10 Poor

Everything is horrible, ugly and unsecured. This is way worse than the description mentioned in the site. I am wondering why at all Expedia lists such horrendous properties in its site. To be honest I never had stayed in such a place not even seen before. No basic amenities and no attention. Highly risky stay. Cursing myself for choosing such a deceptive place.

Did not stay!!!! Area was so gross and sketchy. Room was on 4th floor and had a shared bathroom with 8 other rooms. Tried to collect cash upon arrival even though already paid by card.

The photos of the Riviera Hotel didn’t match the room I was given. In fact I was assigned a dorm room (for $76), which wasn’t I purchased. I will pursue this with Expedia.

Kumar and his staff members were extremely courteous and professional. I had inadvertently booked the wrong kind of room on Expedia and Kumar worked out a deal for me to get the room that I wanted.
