The inn was centrally located, with ample parking spaces. It was also within walking distance to a few public transit options, but a bit far from BART. The room was quite spacious, especially the bathroom. It was also recently renovated. However, the noise was Lombard St was too much. The rooms had poor sound proof, and the noise from the traffic, especially the motorbikes, could be disruptive to many sleepers.

The room itself was very nice and clean. The walls are very thin and we unfortunately could hear every word of people who passed by our room. The traffic noises were so loud that we did not get much sleep after 6am when the traffic started. The location is great and we had a great view of the golden gate bridge from our window. We will unfortunately not stay again due to the extremely loud noises.

I had an issue when checking in, my card kept getting declined and it wasn’t because of my bank (I called them). It was very overwhelming because I only brought 1 card. There’s a $200 deposit you need to pay and they will only accept a card with the name of the person that booked the hotel. So make sure you have more than 1 card just in case. We got lucky, after several attempts the transaction finally went through. They’re machine only allowed them to use the card to tap to pay or swipe it, there’s no mobile pay allowed or an option to insert the chip. The property was decent, the room was clean, and it was very affordable. The rooms are smaller than I expected and if there’s no parking you’ll have to double park. We were within driving distance of everything which was great! The gentlemen that work there were extremely kind.

Loved everything but the area. There's a bus right out the front which is convenient, and only like a $10 uber to fisherman's Wharf so it's not the worst. Staff were very kind, and rooms was immaculate. Very happy with our stay.

I had no problems checking in or parking. Hotel was very basic, but super clean. Felt safe and quiet. Hot water and fridge worked. Bed was comfortable. Tons of food options within walking/driving distance. I’m usually very on edge and observant of surroundings, but I saw absolutely nothing worrisome and felt very safe.
