Review of Bijou Hotel

The rates at this hotel were quite reasonable compared to others in downtown SF. The staff was very personable, and they even offered a free glass of wine on check-in!

It must be mentioned that it is in a rather funky part of town that can be a bit scary at night, but it's only a block from the main drag, so it's not too bad (aside from the man screaming for an hour outside).

Also there's a weird window in the bathroom that just opens to... the wall, and pipes, and you can hear guests in rooms above and below you in the bathroom. Weird and unpleasant.

Aside from all that, just fine and dandy! If you're not too picky and want a reasonable place to sleep close to a conference or downtown or whatever, I'd recommend it.
