The price was great. There was some construction going on, but it was not inconvenient. Parking was very tight, but at the same time, amazing to have it included! Close to lots of things, easy to walk and get breakfast and dinner and catch tourist buses

We enjoyed our stay at the Francisco Bay Inn. The property is conveniently located to many local attractions and restaurants, all of which were easily walkable. We had no difficulty with parking and our room was clean and comfortable. We did bring a fan/noise machine as we were well aware of how the city traffic generates noise and it came in handy during our stay. We would definitely stay at the Francisco Bay Inn again!

Clean and tidy room, room was a little dated, needed decoration on one of the walls. The bathroom needs a little attention. Great view of the Golden Gate Bridge.
