This was our 5th stay here - a true hidden gem... simple rooms, but spotless. The front desk gent (manager? owner?) is a total class act - very much cares for his guests, looks after them - a true delight. There are large and small rooms - the small ones overlook the parking area to the rear, and are quieter; the larger ones overlook Judah St and the street cars/MUNI - we personally love its sounds: shades of Manhattan. We've stayed at a couple other nearby places - but the Ocean Inn is by far far our go to place. How about a 12 on a scale of 10? :-) x100

Clean room! Hot water! Comfy bed & feather pillows! I don’t care about an outdated pink bathtub, it was huge. I would stay again. One thing is the cali tram is right out the window yet I still slept hard.

Spotless is a stretch but it was clean enough. I checked in very late (2AM) so had to pound on the window and ring the bell for 15 minutes before the agent appeared but I understand it was late and he was sleeping. Otherwise it was fine and well-situated near the beach. Price was fair.

For a low cost hotel, very clean, rooms have been redone and very nice for cost. Parking is limited. The one issue we had was the bar in nextdoor. Band started playing after 10 and got extremely loud until very late.

Not the place to stay if you need a good night’s sleep due to bar noise. The room itself was fine.

It gets 5 stars not because its a 5-star motel (motel not hotel) it gets 5-stars because location wise and time of year it was a great value and reasonable overall price for an outer sunset place to stay during new years. Walking to java beach every morning brings me back

The location was convenient. Two blocks from the beach and right on the muni line. The band in the bar downstairs was quite loud some nights. The vents on the heater needed cleaning desperately

Pros: hotel parking off the street, clean, refrigerator, microwave, coffeemaker. Cons: extremely noisy, the bed creaked, the floor creaked, you can hear your neighbors inside their room and anybody walking/talking by your room. Horrible sleep or lack of.

Below the hotel there's a pub, and people are talking outside until 2 AM, making a lot of noise. In front of the hotel there's a subway line, which also makes a lot of noise until midnight.
