Great location. Walking distance to Pier 39 and tourist area, with shops and restaurants. Perfect to park the car (without a charge). Large room viewing a glimps of Golden gate bridge (at the 3rd floor). Also at the same floor a beautiful outdoor terrace to sit and relax or having a meal/snack. When we noticed our coffee maker was broken the cleaning personal gave us directly a new one.

People at the reception could have had a little bit more friendly approach. City maps could have been given out for example.

The location was in a nice safe district, in what we found to be very much a city of two halves. The lovely picturesque half and the other frequented by the very public vagrants with obvious drug problems. This made the city feel the most threatening and abandoned by its people of all the places we visited on our stay in the US. Be careful not to stay in or stray into the districts such as the Tenderloin district. It was certainly an eye opener to the problems facing the US administration at this time. The hotel was located walking distance from the docks and the boardwalk areas of the city and Lombard street on which the hotel sits is also walking distance from the famous wiggly street. (it is all uphill so therefore not for the faint hearted perhaps) And there was a bloke walking a duck, what is not to like about that?

Nothing really because the hotel itself was difficult to fault, and it was exactly what we needed for our stay. The staff had good local knowledge and a hop on hop off tour bus stopped outside the door. Although we did not use it because it seemed expensive. The city is very walkable, but be careful where you walk, as previously stated.

ALL ROOM IS GOOD, CLEANING GOOD , NEAR DOWNTOWN. GREAT LOCATION.

Booking.com had already made the chargers and they also made them to the card. it was stressful because I had NO MORE PRE FUNDS, SINCE THE HOTEL WAS PAID . In the end, they charged me all rooms and deposit, if they returned it to 3 days later, it is the 1st time that it has happened. That they charge again when booking I already charge ! why?

Clean and comfortable.

The hotel is dated, I needed ice and the machines weren't working. The vendors machine didn't have water. Some people were working near my window's room.

Location is great Large room Room facilities Comfortable bed

Arriving late 9.30 pm after a several hour drive Carpark full guy on reception could t really advise if the car would be ok on surrounding roads or give any local knowledge on this. If you arrive on a weekend it’s free to park on road as long as you do not block any garages and keep clear of coloured curbs, took us an hour driving around the block to find somewhere and then Google this info so a little more Info from reception would of mitigated all the stress Following morning I got up super early and managed to park in the hotel garage as we were there for 2 nights.

Staff is super friendly and answers fast to emails. They gave us some information about the surrounding. Most of the most famous places are in a walking distance. The plus is the parking, as it's very hard to find parking lots in SF, I would really recommend this hotel. Rooms was huge!

The cleanliness wasn't perfect, but perhaps it's just old stains that won't come out of the carpet and sofa anymore. Parking spots are limited, following the 'first come, first served' policy, so if you check-in in the evening, there's a risk of not having a spot for your car.

Location is great with a bus stop outside the front door on a route that takes you to the Wharf in about 20mins. A beach and Ghirardelli square are about 15 mins walk and the cable car terminal is around 20mins. Reasonably quiet area in a good side of town. Rooms were a little dated but clean, well equipped and the beds were firm but very comfortable.

Rooms are accessed by key card which fail all too often. Keep them away from your phones and any other electronic devices. Breakfast wasn't offered and there isn't a bakery, deli or decent convenience store nearby.

location, quiet, comfortable

Another guest blocked my car in the basement parking garage. It took 30 minutes to get the car moved. Not really the motel management’s fault, but they could better monitor the parking garage and not allow one guest to block another guest’s car.
