The property and the courtyard were beautiful and so well maintained. The rooms were quaint and clean with an at-home feel. The pillows and bed were super comfortable. Hearing the birds in the morning by the window planters was such a treat. The office staff were so wonderful and knew so many local spots with all the insider advice. Would definitely stay here again. This motel made our visit to San Francisco so enjoyable. The convenience of being right by bus stops with direct routes to Ghirardelli Square and the Wharf was an added bonus ! If you have the opportunity, stay here and enjoy your visit to San Francisco ❤️

Price was right for a one-night stay. Free parking and pet-friendly with a reasonable pet fee. Room was dated but well-equipped. Bed linens were okay but worn thin. Mattress was adequate but old with squeaky springs. Friendly staff.
