I loved the location of the motel, the only thing I didn't like was that there was no coffee maker in the room, but without a doubt if I go back to San Francisco I will stay at the same motel

This is a safe, clean and affordable option in San Francisco. The motel is a short distance from many wonderful areas of the city, including the Presidio and Fort Mason, is a block from great restaurants and shops, and there is a bus stop right in front. The rooms are clean and while there is some visible wear and tear, I felt comfortable as a solo female traveler staying here.
