Convenient and clean motel near Waterfront

I stay at the Surf motel many a visit to SF. The staff is friendly, rooms are clean with some updates like laminate floors. It is well situated near the Embarcadero waterfront in SF. Great location and some good food nearby. It is helpful to be able to park in their parking lot with a parking tag as a guest.

Will not be returning

Okay for the overall value, but we will not be staying there again. There was mold in the bathroom, hairs left in the bathroom from the last guests and it was clear the sheets were not changed. We only had one night there, so we dealt with it, but don't recommend staying here

A Place to remember in San Francisco

The site of the motel is unusual, located on the busy Lombard street it has access to good food and sites, They do place you with what room you first selected when you paid online or what is available. The rooms are cozy, working cable and amenities. It is fairly quiet and it feels very safe. Good place to stop at when staying in San Francisco for a few days..

Only redeeming things: GREAT LOCATION and PRICE!

This is the worst hotel we have ever stayed in! There were no bars of soap and none available, the pillows were rock hard flat, the heater did not work at all which I’m assuming also I meant there was no air conditioning if we had wanted that, The elevator was an antique that took forever, the parking spaces were extremely narrow, the towels were paper, thin, lije the flooring (we heard the people/music below us) and it took us anywhere from 3 to 8 tries to open the door! BUT: THE LOCATION IS GREAT!!
Janet, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disappointed

Room was very dirty and dusty you can tell they don’t dust the room and all the railings were rusting. There was no working hairdryer. The room has an old lingering smell that is very strong. I wouldn’t recommend staying at this hotel. It needs reinvestment and an update.

I loved the location of the motel, the only thing I didn't like was that there was no coffee maker in the room, but without a doubt if I go back to San Francisco I will stay at the same motel

Could be better

Hotel was okay but needs work done the door had a gap in the bottom where the breeze would come in at night . Not all light fixtures worked, no hand soap available, tv remote was horrible and WiFi service was almost not existent!
Rosa, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice clean, spacious, well situated motel room with included onsite parking, depending on room location there may be a little traffic noise. I would definetly stay there again.
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a safe, clean and affordable option in San Francisco. The motel is a short distance from many wonderful areas of the city, including the Presidio and Fort Mason, is a block from great restaurants and shops, and there is a bus stop right in front. The rooms are clean and while there is some visible wear and tear, I felt comfortable as a solo female traveler staying here.
