Kasa la Monarca San Francisco

No toothbrush or toothpaste given, however, they have a 24/7 virtual live chat which are able to be assist on most matters. if unable, they try their very best to accommodate or source for replacement, such as a broken shower curtain. Basic facilities, they have a common lounge which has a fridge and freezer and microwave oven which is accessible from 6 am to 10pm. Very clean place.

Little fridge, nice little commune kitchen free coffee. Good intimacy. The neighborood is pretty quiet. Not far from the market trader joes and coffee shops. The restaurant nearby called A cup of Joy sells really good coffee. Dont forget to wear something flowers in your head. Enjoy

Bed was comfortable, and room was very clean and nice. Has a city vibe to the building, and had good nights rest the days that we stayed. Host was attentive and always answering my questions right away. A lot to see and close to everything we wanted to visit. All in all, we enjoyed our stay!

What an incredible stay. Effortless, cool, and convenient in equal measure. Quiet and comfortable, a great jumping off point for a day of adventure, and a safe and simple harbor to return to at the end of a night - can't recommend enough. Thank you so much!

If you’re looking for an affordable and cute place today in SF - especially for a solo trip - Kasa La Monarca is the place for you! It is a beautifully renovated vintage building with all the amenities you might need. It’s in an awesome location, just a few blocks from the BART train that you can take from the airport. Mayflower Market and Deli, 7-11, Walgreens, Starbucks and Union Square are all within a block or two. The room was spacious and clean and nicely decorated. The bed was comfy and I loved the bay windows.. No complaints at all, I’ll be back!

We were excited to find an option in San Francisco with a shared kitchen so that we could prepare our own food while there. The self-check-in scenario didn't scare us off but perhaps it should have. What follows is a lot of problems, but overall, the experience at the Kasa La Monarca was not terrible. It just really did not meet reasonable expectations of a hotel. Think of this hotel as an expensive youth hostel with private bathrooms. Our experience began with getting an update less than 48 hours before arrival that the elevator was not in service. We called immediately and were moved down from the 6th to the 3rd floor, but would not have been able to cancel as it was within the 48 hour cancellation period. We were assured that no other services were impacted. When we arrived, we realized that our bed was downgraded from king to queen, but were still happy with the shared kitchen offering. Unfortunately, the next morning, we realized that the oven and stovetop was off during the day, due to the workers fixing the crumbling wall that was the cause of the elevator interruption. Our room did not seem to have HVAC at all, as it was hot during the afternoon and evening and then dropped to very cold temperatures at night. We asked for an additional cover the third night to deal with the cold. They could not provide the extra cover that night, as their staff was already offsite. The next day when we returned to the suite, there was no cover, so we texted and were told to go to the housekeeping closet with an entry code - to no avail as there was no cover there either. It was again too late for them to deliver a cover, so we were promised tomorrow again. The next day when we returned to the room there was a sheet in a bag left outside the room, not a cover. It was again too late for them to deliver a cover, so we were promised tomorrow a third time. The next day we relaxed for the morning, and before leaving in the afternoon, I went looking for a staff member to ask for a cover. We finally got an additional cover halfway through our stay. Given the style of hotel relations to guests, you would expect their communications to be exceptionally good. However, they often have significant mistakes. One was a message confirming our check in time for the WRONG hotel, forcing us to call them to confirm that we were not rebooked into a different hotel entirely. The APEC summit was held nearby in San Francisco. Despite all of the local businesses having been provided advance warning of potential impacts, Kasa did not think it would be important to provide their guests any information. The front door lock is finnicky and results in many guests stuck outside for a while when they first arrive, unless another guest happens to be in the lobby to help them. The pictures shown online have either been taken with lots of additional light or photoshopped - not sure this is much different from other hotels, though it is also misleading. Because of the common kitchen

The hotel was situated in a quaint neighborhood with many bars and restaurants around. The room was very comfortable and clean. We are always looking for a romantic getaway and this was a perfect place to enjoy each other’s company in San Francisco.

the room had everything we needed. the bed was very comfortable and the place was very clean. we really enjoyed staying here. plenty of hot water for showers. small walk in closet was great. really impressed.

We enjoyed our stay at Kasa La Monarca for the following reasons: The price was right, the check-in process was unique but very simple, the room was clean, quiet (more on this) and comfortable, the location was ideal and the towels were amazing. The parking was a bit of an inconvenience as we had to find a garage. the one we chose was at the Masonic Center and it is on a pretty steep hill. It was an amazingly clean and secure lot. The only negative was carting our stuff back up the hill when we left. The room was comfortable but it was a warm day in SF (74 degrees) so the room was a bit stuffy. We left the window open all night and as you can imagine, there are a lot of city sounds that come in. We mostly slept right thru it. We chose the hotel for it being pet friendly. We were on the 6th floor so our dog got really familiar with the elevator. No issues there. The room is small but we typically travel in a travel trailer so we are used to it. I would go back and stay there again
