Nice little getaway

We checked in and it was so easy. Brendon checked us in and he was delightful. We had a very nice chat and a great laugh! He showed us all the ins and outs of how to get in and out of our own garage as we were on Lombard St. Yes we did hear traffic but both my husband and I slept very well! The place is Beautiful clean and well kept. We loved the fact we could park our car safely and walk everywhere! I really Love the city and have told all our friend. Great hotel experience!

Homey surroundings, like staying with family. Very nice office staff with easy check in, and safe parking. The location is convenient to Chestnut Street dining, and the room was clean and comfortable. The price is very inexpensive for the area, also. Charming courtyard with pretty plantings. A+!

Adorable place, safe parking

This was the loveliest little place in SF! It’s not upgraded but it’s part of the charm. The staff is friendly and helpful! They have covered parking first come first served— the only time I have felt safe with my car in SF.

Updated and comfortable cozy older motel walking distance from many restaurants, Presidio and fine arts museum. Easy access to 101 N & S. The 80 year old fuchsia’s and roses over the entrywere stunning.

Will be back when in SF.

Just as good second time around at this charming and well done motel for a good price. Courtyard atmosphere with landscaping and covered personal car garage! Some rooms bigger than others with less or more types of beds.

I booked our stay at the Marina Motel based on the reasonably close proximity to Fisherman’s Wharf and downtown San Francisco. Advertised as being owned and managed by the same family since 1939 we thought this could be rather interesting. The facade of the motel is rather funky with very colourful murals of flowers and had an Italian village feel about the place with very colourful window/flower boxes on all apartments. We were greeted by a very very friendly lady at check in who could not have been more helpful. We were allocated room 49 which the check in lady warned could be a little noisy with road noise from the busy Lombard Street but you got used to it not to be an issue. Very “old school”decor to suit the image of the hotel greeted us in our room after a steep climb up stairs to the room with a comfy queen bed, a small old style television (but was very adequate), bedside tables and a dresser, an satisfactory bathroom, and a decently appointed kitchen. Don’t expect modern compliances but everything was clean, operable, and enough to make your stay very pleasant. A very short stroll to the vibrant Chestnut Street with a plethora of nice eateries and bars, fashion boutiques, numerous nail and beauty salons, banks, and a rather expensive but nice. Buses at your door were so convenient. This place might not be for everyone’s taste but if you want spending money and wasting it on hotels then this is the place. Thanks a lot guys for our great stay!

Great charming older place in SF

First time at interesting motel from the past and something from a charming movie. Comfortable beds with all amenities needed and clean place to stay. Covered free parking & considerably quiet off Lombard / 101.

The staff was extremely helpful and nice. It is so quaint and lovely a true motor from back in time. The only draw back is the parking is tough especially if you have a bigger car or SUV. There are not enough spaces if the hotel is at capacity. Nothing is brand spanking new but extremely clean. I loved that the windows open and our room was soooo SUNNY !
