Clean and spacious room—we stayed in a Queen Room with Bay Windows. The bathroom was large with great water pressure, and the location is excellent. Definitely a great place to stay again when we return to San Francisco.

The room was great. Love the easy virtual front desk. The only thing i would change is being able to check in
Great place to stay if you want to be in the center of San Francisco. Easy check in and check out process. Fast response time when I need something. Great for introverts who just want to come home after a long day of exploring. Will definitely stay here again.
Great location for exploring sights in San Francisco such as the cable car museum, Lombard Street and Coit Tower. Cable car stop nearby. Trader Joe’s a 10 minute walk. Room furnished to a high standard.
I love staying at Kasa locations the aren’t just hotel they are like being home.The staff is great they make it where they treat you like family if you have a problem they rectify it
There were facilities lacking, especially in the bathroom that other facilities usually have. Most have a toothbrush a small tube of toothpaste and a glass. The room was cold and there was no heater. Otherwise it was a very nice room with a view and very clean.
Clean room and easy to check in. Some parking along the street out front if available, room was a decent size with a mini fridge which was great, walked to most attractions in half an hour so location was good for us.
It was in a great location and the staff was very accommodating. If you need a microwave or kitchen, it’s located in the basement of the property. Only a very small fridge in the room.
This was great in terms of cost & location. The room was comfortable enough. It was nice that the kitchen has coffee & a communal fridge in case you prefer to cook.
The bed was not the best quality though as the mattress was lumpy & it was hard to get comfortable. There was also no front desk, so I had to find a 3rd party place to store my luggage on the day of checkout.
I found it to be quiet, fairly priced & a nice no frills option that I will likely use again.
There is no staff inside, so when there is an issue, it is not solved or addressed immediately. I had water leaking from upstairs dripping through the closet at night around 7pm, I reported through text, and they called me. They tried to help through phone call, but still end up I clean all the mess. They offered changing room, but I only have 2 more night to stay and changing room is a bit too much for me all the sudden.
Overall the hotel itself is nice. I stayed almost 3 weeks and I really liked overall stay, kitchen & lounge. However, if you are looking for timely service or housekeeping like any other hotel, it will not likely.
Location is also key. It is located center of SF downtown, easy to access to MUNI. Pretty safe to move around.

The room was clean and enough space for 2. The location was convenient. The only problem was the elevator, it small and if someone doesn’t close the metal bar all the way, the elevator will not move. It happened to us 3 times in one day. The elevator was stuck on 1st floor and we were on the 6th, then again when I was on the first floor, it was stuck on the 5th floor. We had to leave early due to emergency, on our way to leave it, it was stuck again. I had to walk down the stairs again to close the metal bar so the elevator can move. We had a lot of stuff so we couldn’t just walk down the stairs with it. That was the most inconvenient part about it and the other is parking.
I found the virtual check-in extremely simply and all my interactions with Kasa to be prompt and helpful. The building itself has a lot of character. My 3rd floor room overlooking the street was clean and spacious and also bright which got me up in the mornings and the water was always hot. I had a couple of initial concerns when I first arrived. The bathroom sink was very small and I'm not sure why because there was more than enough space for a bigger one, however I managed just fine. The gap under the room door meant noise leakage from the lift door being used and people walking around, but it was only a temporary focus of concern. I read about the challenges of the surrounding area and whilst I never felt unsafe there was quite a lot of noise during the nights. Maybe something could be done to soundproof or upgrade the windows? This being said, I had a really good time and my lasting memories are very positive and would stay again.
We stayed in Kasa la Monarca SF in early May 2025. The area is central and very convenient, whether you need Moscone Center or many other destinations, with restaurants and stores nearby, and the price is reasonable for the area. The building blends in with neighboring residential buildings. The staff is rarely seen and doesn't enter your room, but if you need some service, like a change of bedding, clean towels, or garbage removal, you can request it through their virtual front desk. The locks are electronic (even though the keyhole is also present). We had a mini fridge and a mini microwave in our room. The building is quiet, and we didn't hear any outside noise, but our windows overlooked the inner yard, not the street. The bedding and towels were clean, and the mattress with a memory foam top was comfortable. You can turn on/off the central heat radiator in your room at will, as some days in SF can be chilly. The shared facilities are where you can encounter the staff and greet your neighbors. The washers/dryers are coin-operated, with a change machine available. The kitchen has a large fridge (you must mark your food with room number and the leave date), electric stove, water filter/cooler, kettles, and coffee machine. There was plenty of kitchenware, towels, paper towels, soap, coffee packets (decaff only), sugar, salt, creamer, and more. You are asked to clean up after using the kitchen. We enjoyed our stay and recommend the hotel.
Average stay. rates are similar to other hotels nearby. biggest plus is their kitchen downstairs where you can cook and save some bucks from the eating nearby expensive outlets. Our toilet seat was shaky. curtains in washroom were loose and fell off nearly missing our head. The person came to fix the stuffs next day and fixed the curtains and said he cannot do nothing on the toilet seats. The use of kitchen was restricted to microwave since the gas line was cut off for 3 days due to works going on in building. I was working from home and the construction was going on near the windows and it was getting really noisy. this went on for 3 days. Please do not lease the property if you know that major works are going on near the rooms. the dishwashing system is terrible. people eat and keep the dirty dishes inside day and night and we never know if the utensils are clean or not. we found curry stains in few plates kept inside for use. lastly we requested the team to please accommodate us till 12pm as our flight got delayed. But they refrained and asked us to check out exactly at 11am or else incur additional charges. We were shocked as we have paid for a weeks stay and for 1 hr extension they wont help. Average stay and poor service. Plus point is nearby location is really good.
Everything was nice. Bed was a little stiff. But overall very nice place to stay in the city. Was located right next to my work meeting and local diners.
