It was cool. Nice place. Glad they had an elevator
Heidi, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

A Place to remember in San Francisco
The site of the motel is unusual, located on the busy Lombard street it has access to good food and sites, They do place you with what room you first selected when you paid online or what is available. The rooms are cozy, working cable and amenities. It is fairly quiet and it feels very safe. Good place to stop at when staying in San Francisco for a few days..

10/10 Exceptional

Almost perfect
Everything was fine…except that when we ran out of tissues, I requested another box and the cleaning lady kept answering « no more, no more ». So we had to buy our own replacement…

You can do better
The room was clean but it feels very old and in need of a makeover. If you’re thinking of going to SF and this is the only place you can afford, don’t go! Wait, save your money and stay somewhere better!!
Mallory, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I liked the free parking and they had there own parking lot
Jenny, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Surf somewhere else
No coffee maker, fridge, iron, microwave, hair dryer, toiletries or phone. No maid service, so no beds were made. Plus no new towels...same towels for 3 days. One double bed in a very small room. Secondary door lock broken. Not at all what we expected. Worst ever.

A good affordable motel.
The Surf Motel was very accommodating in re-arranging the dates of my stay. The front desk staff was also very helpful. The rooms were clean and well organized. The motel also had secured parking. The rates were also very affordable. I would definitely stay there again.
