There is no better location on this side of the city and on Ocean Beach. Just a quick walk across the street and you're ON the beach and if you cross the street to the right, you're in Golden Gate Park. Honestly, besides its lack of amenities, it's a place I will continue to go back to stay. And there are cafes within walking distance and the Zoo just down the street less than 2 miles away. You could walk there from the hotel on the beautiful Great Highway on Ocean Beach.

Convenience for my purposes (visiting a friend who lives nearby) and price outweigh the initial impression of a slightly seedy block. The reception fellow was pleasant, warm, and observant. He really was the best asset of the motel. Was worried at first about noise from neighbors, but they weren’t an issue after all. Felt safe and slept well. As a dog owner (didn’t bring him this trip), appreciated the motel is dog-friendly and has plenty of well-stocked poop bag stations. Plentiful parking; good restaurants nearby; ocean across the street.

The hotel was satisfactory overall. However, the windows were broken, and some of the electrical outlets were not functioning properly. The cleanliness was acceptable, and the staff were excellent—very attentive, respectful, and protective. When we arrived, a random individual appeared to be following us, and the staff handled the situation professionally and ensured our safety in a very respectful manner. The location was excellent, very close to the beach, which made the stay enjoyable. The room had a slightly unpleasant smell, but overall, I appreciated the experience and the hospitality provided. 😊🏨🌊

Great housekeeping, property itself is a little rough around the edges, parking is good for San Francisco, and it's a 5 min or less walk to the beach. Your door looks at a nice dune / trail, you can hear and smell the ocean. Rooms were rather roomy and all staff encountered were nice. We had a fridge, just not a coffee maker or microwave but I knew that and planned accordingly. Was it perfect? No. Was it perfect for us? Absolutely! If you're looking for a great value in the city, to enjoy both Ocean Beach and San Francisco, and you're okay with things being not fancy and a maybe a little moldered,

The best part of this was the location and free parking. Our room was clean, but everything in it was just sloppy. The mattresses were basically cardboard, sunk in weird places, and the one of the frames was missing a leg and a wheel, so it dipped lower than the Dow currently. The shower was accessible and large, but someone had used enough bleach to dissolve body parts to clean it. One of the lamps didn’t work at all, and the bedding was probably older than my elder Millennial self, and was as threadbare as my will to live.

Room was good, had a great view of the ocean. Didn't realize how close to the beach the hotel was located. The only downside was for my particular room there was no heater so it became freezing in the middle of the night. Overall, good stay.

We got this place on a deal, which made it very worth it. Is it the best room you’ll ever stay at? No, but is it a great location with beach, Golden Gate Park and lots of food spots nearby? Yes it absolutely is and the staff members are nice and efficient.

Staff was very courteous and accommodating. My request for an upper floor was no problem and when I asked later for an extra blanket, they responded immediately. Room furniture and bathroom needs some updates, but was very clean and good bed and bedding. Overall, you cannot beat the location and view. It is literally on the beach. Small convenience store next door, and great food truck for Tacos in the parking lot at night. 400 ft from the Muni bus stop. Would book again

It depends on what you can tolerate and what you can't. Let's say good things first. The location is excellent. It’s right in front of Ocean Beach. You can walk, jog, ride a bike, or swim. I had a wonderful early morning stroll on the sand. The room is roomy, the beds are clean and comfortable, there are clean towels, and there is a fridge and microwave. I stayed with three teenage daughters, and we literally just checked in late, showered, slept, got up the next day, and left. The toilet sink was cracked and painted over, and the bathtub was almost plugged, so it didn't drain fast. Inside the microwave, there was no turning dish, but it worked. It's Motel 6, but it's pricier per night than other locations because of its location. We slept fine, and I enjoyed the morning St or all at the beach so. I may stay again if I have the chance to visit San Francisco.
