Don’t! No! Horrible! I was lied to!!! I asked when I called if they had on site secure parking and they said yes. I made it perfectly clear that on site secure parking was a must due to my work. THEY DON’T! I Asked if they had a restaurant there at the hotel…They said yes. THEY DON’T! I was told (can’t remember which) I would have a queen…. I GOT A TWIN BED! It was a disastrous experience from the time I pulled up to the hotel. I asked about what they told me over the phone… their reply…we will speak to management. I have filed a complaint to get my money back. The Found hotel had no interest in refunding my money. I now have to fight to have my money refunded. Parking is 3-4 blocks away. There is no on site restaurant. I received a twin bed.

Unnecessarily confrontational managerial staff here, specifically talking about a woman with a bug eyed intense stare that can’t seem to understand simple information and then proceeds to make every conversation an exercise of frustration because of her inability to communicate in a nice and concise manner. Terrible, terrible service. Honestly, like talking to a brick wall that’s decided to be as difficult as possible. Besides this specific person making my stay here unfortunately uncomfortable, the hotel is nice enough. Here’s hoping my next stay here is better, crossing my fingers said person gets some training before my next visit. EDIT: Right, before I move on, also wanted to mention that I encountered bed bugs for the first time in my life in this specific stay here. Was bit numerous times during one night in my room, first time ever experiencing that. Super itchy, awful. And somehow less annoying than Miss Confrontational. So, another thing to work on.

The reviews on this hotel across all platforms are very mixed, but I honestly am so pleased with my stay here. This is the only hotel I've stayed in where I feel safe (I'm a solo female), clean and got AMAZING sleep! For the price this place was incredible, I would definitely recommend to anyone traveling to SF on a budget, and I will book this hotel every. single. time. I come here, no hesitation. In all honesty I enjoyed my stay at FOUND more than any other hotel I've ever been in, it's cozy, CLEAN, and I felt so at home here. Now the surrounding areas can be a bit lively, and there's not much to do around you, but very close to all public transportation. If you're thinking about booking this place I highly recommend, also the staff(Patty & Asal) were very friendly and accommodating, felt like a nice little community 10/10

Do NOT stay here. I brought bed bugs home after a one night stay. When I contacted the office to notify them, they were very flippant and said that my stay was during a very busy time, but since then, have taken care of any bug problems they may have had. No apologies, and no compensation. Be aware!
