is necessary to reserve ahead most of the time, [the owner]

player, private telephone line with free local calls, etc.)…
Washer and dryer facilities are available. Very attractive weekly
rates. Extra advantage: good information on the city. At The

the Theater District if you're sick of being on the road and
miss the comforts of home. Each room comes with a microwave,
toaster, coffee maker, and mini-fridge filled with chocolates
and jams; the bathrooms features apricot and papaya shampoos;
and the beds are laden with colorful quilts. Your room also
comes with voice mail, TV and a radio/cassette player…
Ask about weekly specials. Reservations are advised in summer." |

"…[T]ravelers on an extended stay in
San Francisco who want all the creature comforts of home, The
Halcyon Hotel comes pretty close. Each of the 25 rooms is equipped
with a microwave oven, refrigerator, coffeemaker and toaster.
They even come with al the kitchen stuff you might need like
china, flatware and glasses; and most rooms include a wet bar
with a bar sink. Every room also has a radio and color TV. What's
more each room has its own private telephone line, from which
you can make unlimited free local phone calls, as well as voice
mail for your messages. And in the basement, you'll find a coin-operated
washer and dryer with free laundry soap. This is beginning to
feel more and more like home." |

maybe in the heart of downtown, but it sure isn't priced like
it, especially when you consider all the amenities it includes." |

"[Owner, Joey Wolosz] offers a no-nonsense,
down-to-the-basics housing service which amounts to one of San
Francisco's best deals for the traveler who doesn't mind taking
care of herself. A white-washed brick building on Hones, edging
into the Tenderloin, Brady Acres is more of an apartment building
for out-of-towners than a typical hotel. The majority of guests
are people relocating to the city or experienced visitors who
come again and again. All 25 units have private baths and are
equipped with mini-kitchens that include a microwave oven, sinks,
refrigerator, coffeemaker, toaster and dishes cutlery and glasses.
Linens are supplied. There is a laundry room in the building
and if you want clean sheets every day, you can have them as
long as you wash them yourself. There's no central desk. Guests
are given a key and voice mail in your room takes messages.
[The] staff are helpful, interested in their guests and full
of great advice and info about the city and the trips beyond
San Francisco… Weekly and monthly rates are also available." |

"The Halcyon Hotel is a friendly little
25 room establishment… It's a great value as each room
has its own bathroom, a mini-kitchen, and local telephone calls
are free, and there are laundry facilities. Phone ahead, the
office is open limited hours." |
|
| |
|
" Most of this hotel's 25 studio rooms are
rented by the week… and you get all the creature comforts:
a room with a bed; a private, newly tiled bathroom with tub,
shower and towels; a dining area equipped with everything from
microwave to flatware, as well as TV and radio; and a private
phone line complete with voice mail. Units usually have a wet
bar with sink, and there's a coin-operated washer-dryer downstairs,
with free laundry soap to boot . The hosts of The Halcyon Hotel
can even get you a good rate on an Alamo Car rental as discounted
parking at the garage around the corner. With this kind of deal
- and a prime location in Union Square - you may never want
to go home. Ask about package deals like stay-six-nights-and-get-one-free.
A few studios are rented by the day summer only" |
