Nice stay. Parking was free; just make sure that you get a space (first come first served). Big rooms with view on the Golden Gate Bridge! We liked it.

Beautiful place, but no kitchen to cook in, and the bathrooms are ensuite which makes it a bit loud in the room when others are using it.
Staff was nice and I LOVE that there was free parking!

The only Ron I didn’t give 5 stars was because 1 of the beds in a coed 6 room was terrible and 1 pillow in a coed 4 room was bad plus the air conditioner was broken. Fortunately it’s rare you would need a AC in San Francisco. Otherwise it’s 5 star especially the staff - very friendly courteous and knowledgeable.
