    Just a note when booking that parking is extra or to notify the motel that you will need parking so it isn’t an after thought

    It’s close to everything I wanted to go and see/do They were very nice when I checked in a little early

    Honestly, this could have been an error on my part but I did not look into the booking carefully as parking is not included in the price of the accommodation (I assumed that a motel would have free parking that comes with the stay). Parking fees for a night was 24USD which was a little pricey overall for the accommodation. Additionally, as the name suggests, there is a lot of traffic by the inn which results in a noisy atmosphere, especially at night.

    I like the fact that their toilet has a shower (with a door) that keeps the toilet floor dry after showers

    No beverage or snack machines. If they are going to sell things in the office, create an in-room pamphlet showing the products for sale. You can charge more and develop another branding hook that pays for itself. Lastly , they should provide an extra set of towels and toiletries. It is ridiculous ti have to hunt around for towels not knowing where to get one and everyone needs one. Upgrade the quality of the towels . A small thing with lots of “staying power!”

    Good value for San Francisco. Previous breakfast was a real plus considering there are no breakfast options close by. It is the little things that sustain patronage however: everyone thinks cutting costs means higher profits. That is just delusional thinking. You have to spend money to make money. Joe costly could it have been? In the big picture, there was a better class of clientele who spent a bit more for the convenience and unique service that could have developed quite a brand. Perhaps, the powers that be will reconsider.

    Team was very nice and helpfull. clean room. We were allowed to leave our car after check out and that was a huge help.

Had no problem coming late at night to get help with parking vehicle afterhours. Room was not too expensive for the night, beds were comfortable and room was clean. Room had a fridge and microwave

    TV had poor picture quality and no guide for navigating available channels. This was a minor issue since I was mostly busy with activities near the hotel.

    Location was perfect for activities nearby. Parking was an extra $25 but the back fenced-in area provided a good level of security. The bed was just the right firmness for back support and overall comfort. I loved that the shower had instant hot water and was very easy to operate. I also liked that the room included a refrigerator and microwave.

    I was looking at the Google images and it had showed some amenities that wasn't there. The pool wasn't working and there was no breakfast.

    It was in the heart of San Francisco and not far from Golden Gate Park. The room was good for the price.
