by Shaneka Bantillan on I just spent a week at the Phoenix. I would definitely recommend it to other street savvy travelers. While the loin is known as a gritty area it is also very central to many popular destinations within the city . We walked everywhere, from Hate Ashbury to North Beach. The staff was excellent. The people manning the front desk were super friendly and helpful. The cleaning crew was constantly making the rounds and the rooms were very clean. Even our waiter at the Bambooddha Lounge was outstanding. I would definitely stay there again. I will say that, due to the location, The Phoenix is not for everyone. If you are not used to traveling in urban areas you may want to stay in a more gentrified neighborhood.
by Franco C. on Holy crap this place rocks. Since the reviews seem to be all over the map on this place I will keep it simple: Cheap drinks, fun as hell bartender, a dude with a guitar that became our own personal band since we basically called out every tune for him to play and free peanuts. Is it luxe? No way. Is it trendy? Hardly. It is a place to meet up with friends and get lubed up and start singing? Hell yeah! Bartender Eileen was a hoot - she got the night off to a roaring start!
by Kyle P. on Best place to see a concert in the Bay Area. Period. Yes the Fillmore is great, but I like the atmosphere of 365 better. Why only 4 stars? Like 97.294% of things in SF, parking sucks.
