6/10 Good

Nice throw-back motel; certainly not an Inn. But fine for us. Surprised at how quiet it was, considering its proximity to the freeways. Comfortable beds, too. Safe parking in front of the room. Very helpful staff.

The room was clean and spacious, with ample storage for two people. The motel is conveniently located near the I580-101 freeway junction, which is an added bonus.

Wharf Inn was the perfect spot for our San Francisco adventure! The location was ideal - steps away from Pier 39, delicious food, and those iconic cable cars. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Loved waking up to the sounds of the sea lions and the bustling wharf. Highly recommend.
