Walls are thin, we can hear other guests talking. Otherwise everything else is great. Comfortable bed, good shower, friendly staff and perfect location near all the restaurants and shops on the Pier (about 20-30 min walk).

Would repeat!

I will repeat. Very good location / neighborhood. I very much enjoyed the waterfront just a few short walks away from the hotel. To my surprise, housekeeping was performed each day of my stay. The reception staff is welcoming and wonderful. Should I find my way back in SF, I would not mind at all staying at this facility if the price is right like it was this time around.

The hotel is located well on Lombard st. Lots of dinning options very close by. Easy public transport options close by. Staff were easy to deal with and talk too. Hotel parking is free if at property early enough which is very convenient. Request to stay at back of building. Very loud if near stairs or road due to baggage banging on stairs and tiles, guests talking loud after good night out and just general road noise. Bed was comfortable except pillows are like lounge cushions and near non existent as a pillow. Take your own if you can. Towels were like tea towels, very thin and hard to dry yourself properly. Very good sized fridge for use in room. Overall property value is very good representation.

Property could do with a little upgrade, but we were there to enjoy the city, so the room itself was spacious enough, and the bed was comfortable. Parking is limited on first come basis. We didn’t have a car, but it is very convenient to get an Uber or trying out the autonomous driving vehicles was super cool. About 30 mins walking distance to Presidio Park and Fisherman’s Wharf. Nice little convenient store across the street and a very good Indian restaurant few doors down.

We had a great two night stay at this hotel. The room looked like it had recently been modernised and was very clean. The reception/breakfast area was a bit more dated, but was fine. The area is nice and safe and it's possible to walk to areas for sightseeing/dining. There are also many bus stops along this road, making it easy to get around. Overall, I would recommend, its a bargain for the location!

I was not expecting the long halls with room but I was gladly surprise with the quietness of the place. It was good I got at a time when there was a parking spot free for us. The only suggestion I have for this place: let potential clients to know that parking is limited and, moreover, let us know what kind of options are there available. But we did enjoy the place, very convenient for everything we needed to do and enjoy. Thanks!

Clean room, friendly staff, close to many attractions if willing to walk. Limited parking so would not rely on this as an option. Opening to rooms is accessible to everyone on the street - locked gate would be preferred but seems like this is the pattern across many of the hotels in that area. Bathroom a bit old with some cracks in the wall but not dirty.

Just okay stay

Toilet seat was cracked and loose and had to be noticed by the cleaning staff. Parking was first come first serve without enough spaces for everyone. This is not revealed in the app. Bathroom very outdated. Staff not very helpful.

We chose this hotel based on other SureStays, cleanliness was good, space is good, however, it showed “parking available” but no mention of parking spots being very limited and staff having priority over guests for parking. We arrived very late at night and had to park a long distance away from the hotel. No elevation available (not handicap friendly) so we have to carry big luggage up the stairs. This should be mentioned

We would not stay here due to the parking situation. The hotel room is clean. I like the 2 beds if you have a family but the disadvantage is you can hear everything outside. It's convenient if you want to be close to tourist places but for me it was very noisy. Oh and parking is so limited! The spaces are small..its more convenient to uber. The front staff could be more friendly. The continental breakfast is good. Pros lots of yummy restaurants around. Pier 39 is only a 10min drive. The front staff called to see if everything in the room was ok. Our family said they would prefer staying elsewhere next time.
