We stayed at the Bartlett for a week. The location is excellent. Fantastic restaurants, public transit, and the cable cars are all only minutes away. We felt safe walking in the area as well. It is bare bones (2 bath towels), you do not get your room made every day but we had our own washroom, it is clean, and very affordable. San Francisco is very expensive so it pays to save where you can, the Bartlett is an excellent way to do just that. A tiny fridge in the room would be the only thing I would recommend.
