It was close by to everything. The location made it really easy to explore San Francisco and visit the Pier without long drives. The room was comfortable and perfect for resting after being out all day. Overall, it was a convenient and pleasant stay.

Room was clean and updated. Furniture is sparse. No hangers for the clothes hanging rack (no closet). Outside condition of the motel / inn is OK at best. Lombard street is loud most of the evening. AC/Heat worked well, but was very loud.

Unexpectedly good lodging.! Roomy and quiet. Parking lot was a little small and cramped. Dinged my car on a pole trying to get into a parking space. Liked the big room and couch.
