We enjoyed our stay at the Castle Inn. The location is perfect as a launching point for exploring the beautiful bay city. Onsite parking was a bonus as was the local dining options right round the corner. Highly recommend the Street Restaurant and Bar just round the corner on Polk Street for a dinner after a day exploring the city.

1st time in San Fran
The room was spacious! The hotel was centrally located for what we were doing. Parking is tight, but manageable. No frills, nice neighborhood, easy to find. Lots of coffee shops and eateries within walking distance. The gentleman who checked us in on 11-10-24 gave us a map with popular local attractions noted. Check in was a breeze. Would definitely choose this hotel again!

Oldie but goodie
This hotel is older and is in a part of town within walking distance to many restaurants. We only stayed one night before our cruise. It was clean and comfortable enough. It was easy to get an Uber and looked close to Chinatown and the port. It was much cheaper than other hotels in the area, but served the purpose and was a good choice for just one night.

An affordable hotel in a fantastic area of the city. It is very no frills/basic accommodations, though. But you cannot beat the price. Hotel was comfortable. Room facing Broadway was slightly noisy at times but nothing unbearable. I’d definitely stay here again. Just want to be clear about that. Lose the carpets and switch to the vinyl flooring, though. Or replace the carpets throughout. They’re in dire need of changing.

The location is excellent as it is within walking distance to Pier 39 and union square and also buses to the Golden Gate Bridge. We arrived early and our room was ready to check in. The front desk (Damien) went all the way to help us to solve the luggages issue that we face. He shared useful information. Very happy with the place, location and service provided.
