The garages have lower clearance than they indicate, and can’t accommodate an SUV that is medium to large due to the height constraints. There is a municipal parking garage just a few blocks away on Pierce St that charges $5 for overnight parking (9pm to 9am), however the staff was not aware of this parking garage, told me that there weren’t any parking garages that allowed overnight parking nearby, and instead recommended parking on the street. I would encourage the staff to identify the parking garage and direct guests whose vehicles are too large for their garage units to the Pierce St garage. I didn’t find it until I was leaving the day of checkout, so I ended up driving around for quite a while looking for a street spot, and ended up parking quite a ways away.

A Lombard oasis. You feel like you have completely stepped into a hillside courtyard, but somehow it is Lombard on the other side. Service was nice, room was comfortable and clean, shower was good. It’ll definitely be my first choice on Lombard from now on.

Great Motel

The Marina Motel met our needs of an affordable location with a kitchen. Beautiful flowers, murals, and friendly staff. The king suite was comfortable for two people. Marina Motel clearly communicates the level of road noise, it was not a problem for us.

This is an amazing hidden gem! We LOVED our stay here and anytime we are in the area, we will be headed back. The garages for cars that lock is a huge perk in the city and it is central to all things you would want to go and do. Feels like you are in a little town and the owners are so very kind and friendly!

Great stay, nice hotel and people

The hotel was super nice it had the allure of an Italian Villa. Very unique! It has free parking on the list floor (it works for regular sized cars or medium SUVs). The rooms have a 1940s style, but it is all well maintained, so it doesn't feel dated, it feels like you jumped into a time machine. Everything was very comfortable and pristine, hotel is very kid friendly, people working there are super nice and knowledgeable about the city. Another huge benefit is that they allow you to bring your luggage before check in on your first day and to keep it safe with them until later on the day of your departure. This is is critical, as you do not want to have a car full of luggage in the City, someone will break in your car. Super happy, will stay again next time I visit SF. The neighborhood has great restaurants too. Last but not least, prices were super reasonable.

Fantastic location in the Marina area. Close to great restaurants/bars, the waterfront, and various aspects of the city were accessible (especially by e-bike). The motel has a fun vibe and the unit was cute. The mattress was old and sagging but it didn't really bother me. I would go back there in a heartbeat and stay longer.

This hotel was perfect for our 2 day stay. We had two rooms that were clean, comfortable and quiet. The parking was nice as each room has a garage stall. The staff was very nice and accommodating. Check-in was fast and we were even able to check in early. It was also safe and within walking distance to restaurants and shops. We will be staying again.

Cute and pretty with room issues

The hotel grounds are charming, with murals and gorgeous flowers. We checked in late and had no problem getting the key from the mailbox. Issues with room--very small with only one chair. Barely space for us to open the luggage rack. We had to open it in front of the closet, so we couldnt use the closet. The queen bed was comfortable, but one side was against a wall, so we had to climb in at the end of the bed or over the other side of the mattress. I kept thinking it could have been configured better. Our biggest issue though, was that the room wasnt cleaned when we were away an entire day. When i asked about it, we were told that you have to tell them to make up the room. That's fine, but no one told us that nor was there a sign in the room with that information. I do appreciate that i had an express delivery from Florida and they put the package in our room.

The Marina Motel is my go to place in SF. It is reasonably priced, by the Palace of Fine Arts, and by good food, there's parking. The place is quiet, easy check-in, clean and if I ever decide, I can bring my dogs
