Absolutely nothing to reproach, as this Inn is exactly as it promotes itself: basic, clean, motel-style property. It was also good priced, or at least its price was good for us. We booked it because it was our first visit to San Francisco ever, and my biggest concern was about high parking cost there. So we were happy to get... More

Have stayed here several times on trips to San Francisco and surrounding area. Hasn’t changed outside appearance in years. Small, 2-story building less than a block from busy Van Ness, but street noise isn’t bad. Don’t stay here for the ambience or well-appointed rooms. Rooms are typical ‘60s era-looking motel rooms but well maintained and very clean. Friendly staff, free... More

Pleasant & helpful staff, willing to discipline unruly guests that were drunk & noisy. Inexpensive by San Francisco standards, including free parking. We only stayed one night & they allowed us to leave the car while we used Muni to tool about the city. Ask for a room on the second floor in the back or the left hand side... More

This is what I would call your old-fashioned motor-in motel, which means it has the plus of onsite parking (although not enough for everyone). The "Inn" in Pacific Heights is stretching it a bit, as well as claiming " Pacific Heights" as it is next to busy Van Ness Ave. on Union Street. Decent area, but not swanky Pacific Heights.... More

We stayed here on Sep.7 for 5 nights, the three of us: me, my wife and our 14YO son. If I have to rank the features of this hotel in consecutive order, then they will be: 1.Location, 2. Staffs, 3.FREE Parking. I selected this hotel after reading TripAdvisor review about hotels in SF 2 months before our family vacation to... More

Stayed here a couple of years and going back this week. It's within walking distance of the Wharf and there's free parking. It's also only about an hour's drive from Nappa. Good day trip. I stayed in a single room for two nights on the ground floor. Plenty of places to eat and walk around town. Bus stops around the... More

Pros: Free parking, good location (walking distance to Russian Hill/Polk St and Union Street), not too expensive (for SF). Although near busy streets (Van Ness, Franklin), the rooms are reasonably quiet. Free wi-fi. Cons: Zero charm inside or out, dated furnishings, horrible lumpy pillows. Breakfast is not worth it (instead go to Blue Bottle or one of the many other... More

After extensive research for our vaca to sf, I decided on this hotel...mainly due to the free parking, price $140 a night, and included breakfast. We were given a room on the backside of the court on the top floor. Room was great but did have a bit of an odor. Room was cleanish, but older. The bathroom was small... More

We booked this on the reviews in trip advisor as wanted somewhere to stay in the city but not mega bucks. Well it really wasn't what was described by everyone, it was awful. Kitchen was filthy, cutlery unfit to eat with, bathroom really old and needed replacing and not 2 bedrooms as described but 1 room with 2 beds, one... More
