A bed in a pinch
The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the parking was secure. Those were my main conditions. Also, good food within walking distance.

Does the job
It’s a bare-bones tourist motel but had everything I needed and nothing I didn’t need. Room was sparse and weirdly shaped but large and well-maintained. You can tell it’s an older building but the ownership has put time and effort into there interiors. Staff was friendly and helpful.
The two cons were that parking was limited and the evenings were loud with the metro right nearby, but in my mind that goes with the territory given the older construction and the excellent location.

I like that it was close to UCSF, but it is a noisy area. Free parking is a plus, but it is first come basis. There is available parking on street as well. Walking distance to beach was nice, but it was super windy and cold when we were there. The Tran runs all day and night which is pretty noisy and there is a bar downstairs that can get noisy as well. Luckily we were there during the week. Overall it is not a bad area.

For the price, it is not bad at all. The room was massive and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was fine. Hot water and good water pressure. Lots of free parking for guests. Only downside was the cable car was very loud and ran all day and night, so if you’re sensitive to sound probably not the place for you. Also the room we stayed in, the window had no screen so it do is just open and be a safety hazard.

Simple, Clean and Functional
Well lite off street parking. Small room, comfortable bed, nice bathroom. Great location for visiting Golden Gate Park and the ocean. Public transportation within one block, many restaurants to pick from within walkable distance and coffee shop one the corner.

Good basic room but no soap, had to undo the shower gel holder and use that. No creamer for the coffee pot either.
