Nice room, lobby/lounge is so comfortable and inviting. Coffee bar with real half and half! Location is ridiculously good. Best place I’ve stayed in a long time, reasonably priced, beautiful building, tastefully decorated room with marble floors and walls in the spacious bathroom and easy access with no hassles at all! Great experience in every aspect.5 stars

Location is ideal for a Northbeach stay. Staff is friendly and responsive. Very old building and common areas are kept nicely. As one would expect for a 3 star. Room number 7 does need a little freshen up. The carpet is very old and stained and I imagine is the reason for the odor in the room. The bay window is lovely but the cushions need to be recovered. Keep it simple. Don’t think you need the bolsters in that area. Just the seat cushions.

In the heart of North Beach

This place is very cute and comfortable and in a wonderful location right in the middle of North Beach and all its great shops and Italian bakeries, cafes, and restaurants. The room was small but comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated. There is no front desk service but when I had some questions they were quick to respond to email, text, and phone call. I would definitely stay here again!

The Washington Square Inn is in a great location for both the immediate North Beach neighborhood, and getting around San Francisco. It's an unattended property, so there is really no "staff or service" to mention. It's also basically an older building, but in decent shape. My wife and I feel like it's one of the nicest bargain stays in SF.

This is a contact-less hotel. We like the simplicity of getting in the hotel and downloading our key. We have appreciated early check-in both times we have stayed at this hotel. We loved our large room the first time we stayed. This time, though, our room was very tiny.

The hotel was clean but the rooms were a bit small. The toilet would make noise when flushing and the noise wouldn’t stop.
