    Affordable and Central in San Francisco
    This was my second stay in San Francisco Inn. I again chose it based on the location and price. It is a basic motel with few frills. The pluses are the small fridge and the wifi. The wifi was fine an improvement on my first stay. Everything has the feeling of being old and…

    Was ok.
    Went for a concert @ ATT park. Short walk to the park and back. Ice machine was not working, check in time was inconvenient, and the homeless were loud at night, most being right below our window. Just a basic place to sleep.

    Stayed here for a week on a business trip
    The people at the front desk are really nice and the room was clean. Parking can be a challenge and one night I had to park on the street. There is no elevator, so you'll have to lug your bags up and down a couple of flights of stairs. My biggest problem was not with the…

    It says 'free parking' but is it 'first come, first served? Or do I need to reserve a parking lot? Thanks
    When booking we requested a parking space. There are only about 30 rooms and possibly 20 spaces. We had no trouble. Whilst there you dont really need a car. Enjoy.

    Do we get a parking space guaranteed?
    No, parking is limited and quite small. Unless they have changed the policy, I would call to double check. Your best bet would be to park and maybe take Uber or lyft around the city or even public transportation.
