A Place to remember in San Francisco

The site of the motel is unusual, located on the busy Lombard street it has access to good food and sites, They do place you with what room you first selected when you paid online or what is available. The rooms are cozy, working cable and amenities. It is fairly quiet and it feels very safe. Good place to stop at when staying in San Francisco for a few days..

The door hinges are all super rusty. Tenants/ guests were fighting and walking around and in front of doors/ windows. Would not suggest to others. And some of the places had bed bugs. Just not worth saving money for this place.

Never again, The Surf Motel

The keycard to my room never fully worked the deadbolt was missing male part which didn’t make me feel secure in the least especially the last night I was there, after packing I went down to the management to make sure I was squared away prior to checking out and some guy met me at my door asking if he could use an outlet to charge his phone, I asked why he did charge in his room, he said he wasn’t staying there, he hovered a bit so I walked away and didn’t come back to my door til he was gone, and of there are no phones in the rooms so I had to google the motel to get the number to report the weirdo walking round on the third floor. The graveyard manager was great as was the evening manager it was the daytime manager that made me so frustrated. He kept asking me for my cards to xerox them at one point he almost had me convinced that part of my bill hadn’t been paid which was annoying but once I spoke to my credit card co., they assured me that they had been paid. I really did not need that headache! Oh all the cleaning staff were awesome.

You get what you paid for. Location wise is amazing. Short drive to almost all of the tourist spots. Clean but outdated, and a lot of minor fixes needed, at least in the room that we got. Lots for restaurants in the area that are walking distance from the motel.
