We stayed 5 nights in a room with a king-sized bed, and we payed a little extra for a mini-fridge so we could have cold beverages and some light snacks in our room. The hotel is on the elderly side but the carpets were clean and everything was in pretty good repair. No unpleasant odors. The TV was a small... More

We were looking for an inexpensive place to stay while in San Francisco for a few days. The rates were very reasonable, and the room was clean and very comfortable. It was located near public transportation. Parking is free and the people at the front desk were very helpful. The only bad thing was that the parking garage smelled like... More

The rooms are ok--- nothing special with 1970's decor. The suites, also with 1970 's decor, are very spacious, with a full kitchen, large livingroom with two sets of french doors and a fireplace ( call down to the front desk and they will bring you fire logs free of charge!), large bedrooms and bathrooms plus free nternet and parking....

Large clean room, free parking and good location make this an ideal place to stay when exploring San Francisco. It's just around the corner from Chestnut Street which has plenty of great places to eat. It was also close to bus stops which enabled us to travel easily around the city by public transport. Would stay again.

Cow hollow is within walking distance to Chestnut street where there are some nice bars and restaurants and shops. Staff was very friendly, no extra charge for parking! Rooms aren't fancy but they are clean and you can't beat the price!

We stayed here 3 nights broken up into two separate stays. The first 2 nights they didn't have an "interior" room so we were given a room in the back with a side window that faced Fillmore St which you could see Lombard St from. We closed the window and curtain and the noise was muted and not a problem... More

My girlfriend and I stayed here to mark the halfway point of a two month roadtrip around the USA at the end of October, 2011, and picked it because of its location and relatively low price (compared to big hotels in the city). Our room was decent - quite large with a big king bed and TV, and everything was... More

Reservation attendant was very rude!! We tried to make a reservation for our family of 4 online. After all of the pertinent info was entered, the website said we could all stay in a King Suite. We called to confirm, but we were surprised by the reservation representative who asked us if we were all going to sleep in the... More

This motel has free parking - a real bonus for San Francisco. Our room was huge, VERY clean, with 2 good sized comfy double beds. As mentioned in earlier reviews, traffic noise was quite loud from the road-facing window. It was a reasonably long walk from fisherman's wharf. About 20 - 30 mins at a slow pace, though rates at...

We decided to stay there after reading the good reviews. We were so disappointed. Lombard is a busy street. Our room was facing the street. When I asked the front desk if we can change rooms she said very rudely there would be a surcharge. We barely got any sleep the 2 nights we stayed there. My parents also stayed... More
