Castle Inn

This hotel is located just outside a one-kilometer tunnel from downtown San Francisco. Once you pass through the tunnel, you're in Chinatown, making it a quiet retreat nestled near the bustling area. There's ample parking, and a vintage elevator makes it easy to transport luggage. The surrounding area is safe, with a supermarket just 150 meters away offering fruits, vegetables, and daily necessities at reasonable prices. The hotel rooms are spacious, with separate wet and dry areas in the bathroom. The air conditioning can be a bit noisy, which is a common issue with motels in the US. While there are windows, they face the corridor, so it's practically like having no windows, but the AC provides good air circulation. The beds are large, the room is spacious, and the bathroom is huge with excellent shower pressure. It's very clean. The free parking is a huge plus. I'd definitely stay here again if I rent a car for my next trip. It was perfect for three of us, with two beds that are both 1.5 meters wide, though the beds are a bit high due to the thick mattresses.

Very expensive for a B&B. Nice spot in the Castro/ Mission district near Dolores Park. Well-maintained & reasonable management. Lots of stairs to go up into main house lobby — wrought iron gates with intercom to buzz to get entry into property. Try to get a room in the older main house to minimize stairs! No AC. They have limited parking spots behind the two B&B houses (access from Dorland St) for US$35./day plus tax which is a steep price. Make sure u book a parking spot in advance. Beautiful garden courtyard in the back. Sadly we never got to use it. Try to get a room that faces the other “house” or the backyard - quieter. We had a front room Deluxe King Room 36 which looked nothing like the sample room photos (only one Room 24 w courtyard view, sofa, coffee table). We got a smaller room approx 290sf vs what we paid for 32sq.m, 344sf, no closet just small armoire to hang a couple of things, no sofa, no coffee table, no balcony. They were kind enough to give us a refund for the price difference between the Deluxe King we booked & the Standard King we got. Had to ask for them to vacuum room. Found tissue under headboard/bed, dusty. Not the kind of room you would want to spend much time in —teeny tiny TV, faced front noisy street with electric bus passing by. No screens in windows so had to close windows at night to keep critters out. Bed was ok. Pillows were synthetic & lumpy. View was of electric lines & school across the street. Beware some electric outlets. One was burnt out. Breakfast was repetitive but nice to eat in a lovely breakfast room or outdoor deck. Hard-boiled eggs, muesli, fruit, muffins/ carbs, American coffee, juices. Fortunately SPRO café was next door if you need a great cappuccino or chai latté! Didn’t get a chance to enjoy their wine & cheese. Contact them on WhatsApp +1 (415) 297-6891 to discuss rooms available.

Lombard Plaza Motel

I stayed at the motel for two nights. It's rare to find a motel in San Francisco with parking, and the location was excellent, convenient for getting around. The service was good, the room had everything you needed, there was a laundry room, and parking was available both in the front and back. I would definitely stay here again. It's a 30-minute walk to the Golden Gate Bridge and Lombard Street.

pleasant hotel. Clean enough. Very small room. Comfortable location, we walked around the city. Commendably gave us an extra hour in the room, super! Coke in the hotel is cheaper than in the shop. We liked it

This price can also include parking spaces in this area. It can be said that the price is very high, so don't ask too much for this price.

I chose this youth hostel because it has a kitchen, a great location, and a good price. It's also not far from Chinatown, so I can easily buy Chinese groceries and cook my own meals. The room was decent, but there was some noise from the outdoor air conditioning unit. If you're a light sleeper, you'll definitely need earplugs.

The inn is in a safe and quiet part of town near the marina, with several major landmarks within walking distance. Reception was always friendly & helpful, even late at night. They were around to assist with finding parking lots when it got crowded. They also handled package deliveries in an organized and efficient manner. Our only complaint was the carpet in the room was perpetually cold and wet throughout our stay due to the air con leaking, and the wetness extended over half the room. We called about this but was told it's normal. However we were able to overlook this by wearing shoes in the room. Otherwise, we had a great stay here!

Was an excellent location to Fisherman's Wharf. Hotel was very secure and comfortable. Showing it's age and there's a few things that are overlooked in terms of cleanliness but I'm in the business and have an eye for these things. Didn't bother us though. Room seemed updated and the fans were appreciated as there's no A/C. Great proximity to all the things. Walked to Golden Gate bridge and the Alcatraz Pier. There was construction the day we arrived in a room close to us, but workers were very polite and apologetic and finished the noise around 5pm. Didn't continue the next day so that was nice and we slept in. Over-all was a good stay.

Union Hotel

This is my experience with Union Hotel. What you see is what you get. If you are not that choosy for a quick stay (2-3 nights) should I say, then you can stay here, less expensive and economically sound for a traveler. However, there are only 2 toilet rooms and 1 shower room per floor with 12-15 single/double bed rooms sharing that amenities. This is a 4 story cute hotel, and there is no elevator. So watch out if you carry heavy luggage as it will burden you. There is no front desk like a typical hotel, you need to enter a gated (with buzzer) door, and the owner will meet you at the approaching alley in the 2nd Floor. Although there is a small lavatory inside the room. No A/C nor heater also. No blower as well. The location is very near at the 16th Street Bart Station but need to caution you during night time as this area is in Mission district and maybe “not so normal” people around the corner doing lot of things (I cannot confirm if they are doing bad, as I didn’t get closer to them), plenty of street dwellers also are present in the neighborhood, just be careful with your belongings when getting in the sideways.

The address of the accommodation is easily accessible, next to the bus stop. There is a convenience store. Restaurants in the same area The disadvantage is that it is an area with a lot of homeless people. for cleanliness There are some that are clean and some that are not that clean because it is a residence where many people live. Overall, it was worth the price paid.
