This hotel was fine! The price was fair for what was included, and we liked that a parking space was provided. This hotel is in a safe area that felt more like a neighborhood rather than a tourist spot.

Castle Inn was clean, quiet, and comfortable, in walking distance to Pier 39, etc. We thought it was a great value too - parking being included was a huge bonus!

Good location, with convenient and free parking included. Large room, quiet at night despite being central. Our room had a congregation of flies inside and out, and had a strong smell of cleaning product. Ok for a few days.

In the room: no working phone to call the front desk, no drinking glasses, no coffee cups, poor pillows, beds extremely soft, no working tub or shower as water barely came out. Bugs in the tub! Not for us!

Hidden gem

Ideal stay in a good location in SF. Room was a decent size, with soft comfortable beds, a refrigerator and microwave and free, safe parking. A small property and quite quiet. Very easy to walk to the sights, but handy for local transportation if you prefer not to walk!

Great value and location for young family.

Great location, very close to nice food venues and shops. The kids had a great time and the location felt very safe despite some of the reviews we never experienced anything negative walking around all day and the early evening. The room is very comfortable and the staff made the beds every day. Would stay again.

The Castle Inn is in a good location, close to some very good restaurants, cable car stop and small market. The bed was comfortable and the water hot. The TV didn’t work so Reception gave us a note on how to fix it, the note didn’t help. Staff then came and couldn’t fix it. Turns out the batteries in the remote were flat. We could walk to Fisherman’s Wharf or take a taxi for US$7. The Inn is in need of an update but that being said it filled the needs of our 3 night stay.
