Liked: Cleanliness
A quaint motel. Older furniture, but in good shape. No desk and the one chair was not very comfortable. The queen bed was very comfortable. No A/C, but being in SF, probably not an issue (usually). Near the very busy Lombard Street, so noise can be a concern. Located in a great area with many, many restaurants and bars.
