Old school cool on the upper end of State Street!

Old school cool on the upper end of State Street! The price is competitive, and the employees are all quite nice & hospitable. It is definitely a "no frills" experience in a great location near the SB Mission.

Cute and convenient

In SB for a concert. Very convenient location (walking distance to Arlington Theater). Cute old school motor inn. Clean and comfortable. A bit noisy though due to older windows.

Robert, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

loved the quiet comfy room---but did miss not having a coffee maker in the room, tho:( There is a fridge, tho---and the room is very spacious. Loved the upper deck for sitting out on---we'll likely be back. There are breakfast and other eateries close by---and it is a Good value for the money.

It was a good place. Loved the neighborhood and the hotel itself. I just was not there long enough to truly enjoy it. I would definitely return.

Simple Motel great location

Nice little motel. Very clean. Large room. Bikes to borrow on a first come basis ( we did not use but good to know) Close to Granada theater and all the restaurants and shops on State st. A little under 2 mile easy walk to pier and beach. Down side no coffee in room and sound carries to the extreme.
