A night at the Phoenix Hotel:There’s always a tour bus parked outside this famed Tenderloin motel, once known as the Caravan Lodge. Serving as a de rigueur stop for musicians traveling through San Francisco since its early ’90s revival, some of the famous faces who have staggered through the Phoenix’s lobby include the Strokes, Red Hot Chili Peppers,the Killers, Joan Jett andDavid Bowie. A few probably even ended up naked in the pool. The hotel still invites debauchery, with its outdoor parties and onsite vinyl bar,Chambers. It also has a dark side — a note found in Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain’s pocket after his death was written on Phoenix stationery.
