Great quiet area! Couple streets up is Union St that is all restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and clothing shops all available. Parking was great because we have a pickup and had no issues. Front desk was very welcoming coming in and pleasant while checking out! Will be back for sure, my husband has monthly visits to the UCSF..
This was a great motel kind of in the middle of everything we needed. We had rented a car and came in very late after a concert (our reason for going to SF) and there were still places to park. Also, the lot is very secure with only two entrances from the street so nobody is likely to be randomly walking through unless they purposely turn in to the property. The rooms were pretty quiet and the only time I heard the street was when an emergency vehicle was going through with sirens on. The room was very clean, and housekeeping even came through during our two-night stay and swapped out our towels with clean ones. The setup of the room was also cool with a little sitting area on the side. The AC was top notch and we kept it around 68 when we were sleeping, which was perfect. The front desk guy was very polite with a smile to greet us. It was a wonderful motel overall that was quite affordable compared to the other properties at the time, especially given the security and parking available. I'll defintely be looking at this one if we come back to SF!
Would stay here again. Great location in Marina District, free parking, daily turn down service. We requested a room towards the back away from Lombard St and it was quiet enough. Cute property. Couple of things that I wish they would improve - there is a sensor on the bathroom light so it turns on anytime someone walks in. if you get up in the middle of the night the bright lights of the bathroom are in full force - also the sensor does not sense motion in the shower so if you are in there too long the lights turn off and you are showering in the dark. The windows have cute shutters in them but they are not great at keeping out light so be prepared with an eye mask if needed. Overall we enjoyed our stay and if we are back in San Francisco would check it out again
No issues at all with our stay other than a door that was a little hard to open/shut. This is an amazing place just a few blocks from Fort Mason where you can walk to in the morning for an incredible view of the Golden Gate (fog permitting), Alcatraz, and the SF Bay
I would never stay at this property again. It has been updated but was poorly done. The bathroom light is automatic and does not stay on when you shower. So you must get out of the shower so the motion will put the light back on. Tiny rooms. Rude employees. Terrible service. Very noisy street. Anywhere else would be better than this property.
Brand new motel on Lombard, walking distance to lots of SF sites (including Palace of Fine Arts, Krissy Field, Ft. Mason, Ghirardelli Square and Fisherman’s Wharf). Free parking was awesome!!
