It's a bare bones Motel 6. Room was roomy and fairly clean.
There are rats in the walls. You can hear them running around all night long.
Very close to the beach.

Helpful staff. It gets the job done for just a bed and a shower between work travel shifts. Bare minimum. Great location next to the beach. Recommend 2nd or top floor due to various noise issues at night/early morning.

Room was good, had a great view of the ocean. Didn't realize how close to the beach the hotel was located. The only downside was for my particular room there was no heater so it became freezing in the middle of the night. Overall, good stay.

We got this place on a deal, which made it very worth it. Is it the best room you’ll ever stay at? No, but is it a great location with beach, Golden Gate Park and lots of food spots nearby? Yes it absolutely is and the staff members are nice and efficient.

Staff was very courteous and accommodating. My request for an upper floor was no problem and when I asked later for an extra blanket, they responded immediately. Room furniture and bathroom needs some updates, but was very clean and good bed and bedding. Overall, you cannot beat the location and view. It is literally on the beach. Small convenience store next door, and great food truck for Tacos in the parking lot at night. 400 ft from the Muni bus stop. Would book again

The motel is average. The staff is all nice and courteous. The people next to our room were up all night being loud and probably all strung out. The location as well as free parking get it an extra star though.

Great Location away from downtown San Francisco!
This hotel was right right next to newly created Great HighwayPark.
Great location also for visiting Golden Gate park.
