Hotel a bit tired and grey. We booked a deluxe room but had to downgrade because of street noise. Breakfast ok but not a lot of space to eat. Excellent location and car parking. Clean.

I left my heart in san fran

Pros: Close to fishermans wharf andprice.
Cons: Fridge
Location: Fishermans wharf is a sedate 20 min walk.
Came for a short stay holiday and loved san fran. Buena vista motor inn is an easy 20 min walk to fishermans wharf. Good that your away from the tourist but close enough. Walked home late at night and felt safe. bed was great but the pillowsway too soft for us. Only thing lacking was a small fridge. Staff were great. when we re-visit, will stay again. PS no views from our room.
