Inn at Golden Gate

Perhaps this sums it all up? When I took the face towel from the towel rack, the rack fell off.

It was a great and easy stay. The room is exceptionally clean, the area is very safe and quiet. Close to the city center and walkable to many restaurants. I didn’t have much interaction with the staff. The cleaner would come once in two days of stay (this was completely acceptable to me). Check in and check out was easy. I didn’t have a car though, so I am unable to post a review for that part. Nevertheless, I will come back here!

We booked a room with a queen bed and was placed in a room a full bed. It was the Holidays so there was no room service from Wednesday night until Saturday late afternoon. We had to ask for towels and bathroom necessities from the front/check-in office. There was parking but the parking was very cramp, could probably only fit 8 cars but it would have been hard to get out should the parking lot be full. Besides all of that, the area stayed pretty quiet during the night. Since it’s right off the Main Street, it did get loud during the early mornings to afternoon. The worker/owner was kind.

Terrible stay, I couldn't shower because there was no hot water, also the heater didn't work, l'll never come back

I enjoyed my stay at Golden Gate Inn. It's a short walk to spots like the Golden Gate Bridge, Palace of Fine Arts and the Presidio. The surrounding area felt safe and quiet. Parking is limited but we were able to find street parking a short distance away. The hotel is no-frills, the room has a fridge but no microwave. The door guard lock in my room was broken, but the deadbolt worked and I felt safe the whole stay. The walls are pretty thin and sheets are a little scratchy. Overall I thought this was a good option for an affordable stay in a convenient location for seeing the sights of the city.

Horrible. Check in was through a plexi glass and was cold outside. Attendant didnt know our room number and free parking meant whatever street parking you could find. Sheets were scratchy and there were broken items in the room.

There are many budget motels on the stretch of Lombard Street between Lyon and Van Ness. It's not a bad area to stay, because there is easy access by car to other areas of the city and it's a short walk to the restaurants on Chestnut Street in the Marina. The Inn at Golden Gate is tucked on the quiet end of Lombard between Lyon and Baker, which means it is one block further away from the traffic going to and from the bridge: it's quieter than most of Lombard. It's nicely walkable to the Palace of Fine Arts and the splendid Lyon Street Steps. The motel advertises free parking, but there are only eight spaces for twenty or so rooms. Street parking is available, but you have to hunt a little and read the signs abut hours and enforcement (weekends, you're good). The property is a little worn, but the price was agreeable. Service was adequate. The room was clean; mattress was fine; TV worked well; refrigerator was a little larger than usual for a motel room. Overall, we had a good experience.

There were only 4/5 ice cubes my husband could get. No coffee or anything available. The room itself was okay/comfortable but very limited amenities

Not a bad stay, comfortable bed. AC in the room did work but was a bit slow. No kettle, microwave, coffee or tea making facilities in the room. Sheets and towels and everything seemed quite clean. Would stay again.
