This is a great place, to stay. One of the major perks, is the private parking. In the city, trying to find parking, can be a challenge, and at times expensive. It was a huge relief to me, to know that my car was right by my room, and was very secure. I had a great experience, with all of the staff. Everyone was very friendly, and helpful. The room was very clean. I had a court yard room, and it was very quiet. I would ABSOLUTELY stay at this hotel again.

Rooms were clean and included a very nice kitchen facility. The one missing item was Kleenex or equivalent tissues. It was a rainy evening, and the noise of traffic on a wet road was quite loud, albeit acting as white noise for getting to sleep. The staff was great.

1930s motel is a surprising find in SF. On busy Lombard St in Marina District, this motel has a cute tucked in courtyard with very quiet rooms. Owned by a family for generations, the check-in was personal and very welcoming. Dogs are allowed in rooms with full kitchen. Though obviously aged, we noticed many upgrades such as new carpet, lovely light fixtures, contemporary touch key entry, and new bathroom fixtures and sink. Bed was comfortable. In our Queen w kitchen, courtyard facing, the kitchen could use an upgrade for the stove. It was functional, but funky. We were able to park in a small single car garage, so felt very safe for our vehicle. Overall, price through Expedia was very reasonable for SF, and there were no hidden fees. Extra charge for pets, and a $250 refundable damage deposit applied to all bookings. Felt good to support a family business, and to have a fair priced safe and quiet sleep in a charming vintage motel.

Great find! Clean and friendly, the only thing we might recommend upgrading are mattresses. But it is a decently priced budget place that is clean and offers free parking and it’s dog friendly. We will absolutely be back.
