We stayed 2 nights here and both night were wonderful. It was really quiet and we walked to dinner both nights. There is a bunch of restraunts right around the block. We parked in the garage underneath the hotel and took city transit, the bus stop was right outside the front door almost, will definitely go back.

Room was okay, until I woke up in the morning with ants all over bedside table and even some in the bed, I could easily tell they were ants though, at least they were not bed bugs.

This place is stuck in the 80s ! There's even a phone book in nightstand. The furniture is falling apart. It's just totally stuck in the '80s and if you're on any side the Lombard side or the fillmore side you're going to hear a music and people screaming and drunk people until after 2:00 a.m. They should really warn people about this before you get a room there. We definitely would not ever stay here again. Also the bathroom was dirty old crusty stuff in the tiles.

The location was wonderful. We could walk or catch a bus to wherever we wanted to go in the SF area. Union and Chestnut shopping and dining streets were both within a couple of blocks with a great selection of dining, bars, and shops - including a good bookstore and old fashion movie theater. We could walk to the Marina area, Presidio or Ft. Mason. We would stay here again.

Ok experience

Everything was kind of out of date and felt a little sub par… I asked the front desk if they have water available and they said no, but they have vending machines, the one on my floor didn’t have any bottled water. They didn’t have a mini fridge or microwave in the rooms. One benefit was the underground locked parking available. It’s fine if you just need a place to sleep and not spend much time!

I liked the location, and parking. I didn't like that it was super noisy on Saturday night. Many night clubs in the area and music was super loud. We could not sleep until club closed after 2:00 a.m.

Convenient, Safe, Friendly

I found the Chelsea Inn fit my needs perfectly. It was what I expected. Wilson at the front desk was super friendly. He and I are both SF native kids so there was an instant bond. Parking is secure in the lot outside the lobby or in the card key operated underground garage. Safe hotel. Rooms & bathrooms are spacious with older Early American style furniture, comfortable beds. Bedding and towel linens were clean. 3rd floor has nice views. Rooms have safe deposit boxes. Always a plus! A mini fridge and microwave would have been a nice touch, often found in these Lombard Street area hotels. You could see in the TV Armoire that space was there to accommodate them at one time. I think maybe some rooms have them? My 3rd floor room faced Fillmore, great views!! Traffic noise was not an issue... but on a Fri or Sat night, there's a super popular nightclub across the street called Jaxson's. It's packed with people pouring out onto the sidewalks, so if outside noise bothers you, the Fillmore street facing rooms on a Fri or Sat night might not be for you. It didn't bother me. The hotel itself is very quiet and convenient and efficient. Good value. I'd stay here agin. Only thing that bothered me... housekeeping piles up dirty linens, garbage and dishes just outside the elevators on the room floors. It's unsanitary and smells. Also unnecessary because housekeeping closets are steps away. Perhaps they need dirty linen bins? Fixable! Exterior halls could be cleaner. I'd stay here again!
