This hotel was perfect for our 2 day stay. We had two rooms that were clean, comfortable and quiet. The parking was nice as each room has a garage stall. The staff was very nice and accommodating. Check-in was fast and we were even able to check in early. It was also safe and within walking distance to restaurants and shops. We will be staying again.

Cute and pretty with room issues

The hotel grounds are charming, with murals and gorgeous flowers. We checked in late and had no problem getting the key from the mailbox. Issues with room--very small with only one chair. Barely space for us to open the luggage rack. We had to open it in front of the closet, so we couldnt use the closet. The queen bed was comfortable, but one side was against a wall, so we had to climb in at the end of the bed or over the other side of the mattress. I kept thinking it could have been configured better. Our biggest issue though, was that the room wasnt cleaned when we were away an entire day. When i asked about it, we were told that you have to tell them to make up the room. That's fine, but no one told us that nor was there a sign in the room with that information. I do appreciate that i had an express delivery from Florida and they put the package in our room.

We loved our stay at the Marina Motel. Quaint and serene. They have on site parking which is great when traveling in San Francisco with a car. Would stay here again the next time we are in town!

The Marina Motel is my go to place in SF. It is reasonably priced, by the Palace of Fine Arts, and by good food, there's parking. The place is quiet, easy check-in, clean and if I ever decide, I can bring my dogs

Nice little getaway

We checked in and it was so easy. Brendon checked us in and he was delightful. We had a very nice chat and a great laugh! He showed us all the ins and outs of how to get in and out of our own garage as we were on Lombard St. Yes we did hear traffic but both my husband and I slept very well! The place is Beautiful clean and well kept. We loved the fact we could park our car safely and walk everywhere! I really Love the city and have told all our friend. Great hotel experience!
