Everything has been surprisingly impressive. Check in was simple. I had prepaid for my stay prior to arrival, which didn't include any deposit, but I had the funds for that available, so the desk guy got that easily taken care of. For the price, compared to other lodging in S.F.,- awesome deal. I'll most likely stay again sometime, and will make the recommendation to friends if and when the opportunity arises. Thanks again.

Loved the area for concerts at GG park with the family. It was definitely not quiet, but we expected that and planned accordingly. Super kind folks at the bar below. Staff at the hotel was pleasant and did their job without intrusion on guests - they noticed our coffee choices and made sure to replace the kind we used only. You need to ask for amenities like coffee sugar packets/creamer, etc, but they have them.

A bed in a pinch

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the parking was secure. Those were my main conditions. Also, good food within walking distance.

I inadvertently booked this inn for a second stay. Pros: large room, close to beach, parking, comfy bed, fridge in room. Cons: you really cant sleep here due to the excessive noise. Bar on bottom floor has rock music until 1 am, street trolly turnaround is excessively noisy, and loud bar patrons congregate under the windows late at night. I used earplugs, a white noise app, and wrapped pillows around my head, but that didn’t help. They really need new soundproof windows and some other insulation. I would also be nice if they added another table or a dresser and coat/towel hooks. Hangers would be nice too. Two beds, but only one luggage rack. We resorted to stacking /hanging things from the ironing board!

Does the job

It’s a bare-bones tourist motel but had everything I needed and nothing I didn’t need. Room was sparse and weirdly shaped but large and well-maintained. You can tell it’s an older building but the ownership has put time and effort into there interiors. Staff was friendly and helpful. The two cons were that parking was limited and the evenings were loud with the metro right nearby, but in my mind that goes with the territory given the older construction and the excellent location.

Stayed for 3 nights to attend nearby Outside Lands festival. Room was dated but clean. Unfortunately, we never received cleaning service or fresh bath towels during our entire stay. Could not open windows for fresh air so had to leave front door open for air. The positive? Our 18 years old son said we were just being bougey and that he will try to stay here for the 2026 festival because of its convenient proximity to the event
