Overall, it's good bang for the buck. Old but kept well. Only issue, my shower drain was slow to drain, needed a snake down it. Great location. Just make sure and ask for a room away from busy road that runs in front.

Good location, walking distance to GG Bridge and Fisherman’s Wharf, free indoor parking, clean, comfortable. The bar next door had some noise late into the night, not the hotel’s fault. Safe location. Mel’s Drive-in down the street had excellent food.

The toilet was out of order. The hotel management ignored my complaints. At checkout, I was refused to get the receipt. The worst hotel I have ever stayed.

I was amazed to find this gem for such a low price. Our room had a fabulous view of the Golden Gate Bridge, and the staff was very helpful and polite. The street design is a little counter-intuitive for Uber drivers to find the place and designate a pickup spot, but that's certainly not the motel's fault. As others have mentioned, the weekend night noise is a bit disruptive, but it's not horrible.
