Front staff was super nice. Rooms were clean. Beds were comfortable. The building is dated and parking wasn’t the best from a come & go convince standpoint. But would stay here again.

Nice motel on Lombard street with easy access to San Francisco. Free parking for cars was a wonderful plus. Rooms were clean and well maintained and the motel was quiet overall with no drama or issues.

The inn was centrally located, with ample parking spaces. It was also within walking distance to a few public transit options, but a bit far from BART. The room was quite spacious, especially the bathroom. It was also recently renovated. However, the noise was Lombard St was too much. The rooms had poor sound proof, and the noise from the traffic, especially the motorbikes, could be disruptive to many sleepers.

The room itself was very nice and clean. The walls are very thin and we unfortunately could hear every word of people who passed by our room. The traffic noises were so loud that we did not get much sleep after 6am when the traffic started. The location is great and we had a great view of the golden gate bridge from our window. We will unfortunately not stay again due to the extremely loud noises.

I had an issue when checking in, my card kept getting declined and it wasn’t because of my bank (I called them). It was very overwhelming because I only brought 1 card. There’s a $200 deposit you need to pay and they will only accept a card with the name of the person that booked the hotel. So make sure you have more than 1 card just in case. We got lucky, after several attempts the transaction finally went through. They’re machine only allowed them to use the card to tap to pay or swipe it, there’s no mobile pay allowed or an option to insert the chip. The property was decent, the room was clean, and it was very affordable. The rooms are smaller than I expected and if there’s no parking you’ll have to double park. We were within driving distance of everything which was great! The gentlemen that work there were extremely kind.
