What a lovely and unique hotel! We would definitely stay here again. Next time, we would upgrade to a larger room, but the price is very fair for what you get, including the free and easy parking. There is a lot of charm, with well-tended gardens. Staff are very friendly.

Nice property outside but it needs to be updated in the rooms, great location.
We were on a 9 day road trip and wanted to find a place to rest on our way to the pacific northwest.We searched for a motel after normal check-in time,and found this Marina Motel with a little discount for late booking.We arrived in the evening,checked in.Garages were available which was great,parking a rental car on the street is not very safe.Room was super comfy with a kitchen.We were traveling with our fur baby,they are pet friendly!We LOVED our stay,as short as it was...Totally recommend!!
Really well presented motel. Safe, clean comfortable and in a super convenient location. Friendly staff and easy parking. What more could you want. I also loved all the plants, great way to soften the place and make it feel homely.

This is the second time we have stayed at this property, even though it looks old and not super clean. We liked it due to the location, having parking, and having a kitchen.
This time, we should have raised an issue when we noticed some reddish brown streaks at the corners of the bed under the mattress. We were in a hurry that evening so we figured maybe it’s not bugs, so we’ll just be careful and keep all clothes and luggage’s off of the ground since it’s just one night.
That was a HUGE mistake on our part. For more than 5 weeks since we’ve been back, all of us have had new bug bites on our bodies, even after washing our beddings multiple times. I have unfortunately had bed bugs (?) from hotels and motels in the past but have been able to get rid of them or not notice them anymore after about a week. So this is definitely the worse infestation that we have contracted from a hotel.
I like that hotel location, but can never go back to it again now.
Chestnut street just behind the property was quite a find. All sorts of restaurants and shops. I thought I was super familiar with SF but this street was new and fresh for me
We’ve stayed at a few hotels in downtown SF, but nothing compares to the Marina Motel. By far the best place we’ve ever stayed at. The Marina Motel is now our go-to place to stay whenever we’re in town.
The room was very clean, and well maintained. It was only a short walk to many attractions, restaurants, and public transportation. We left our car in the private garage for each room had and we were able to do everything we wanted using the city bus.
This affordable motel was bit farther from Fisherman's Wharf than we hoped. However the convenient access from US Hwy 101 and modest rates made this a deal. And Mel's Diner was only 2 blocks away!

Such a beautiful property. Parking was convenient and plentiful, they even give you a garage to park in! Very cute and cozy rooms, I’ll definitely stay here again on my next trip.
Very very small room for two people and the room/carpet had a funky smell. Had to leave the windows open for the whole 2 days. Bathroom was nice. Parking can be tricky if you have a SUV.
