Yes, it is expensive for a motel, but you will not find cheap acommodation in San Fran except in an area you would rather not be! Free parking. About $10 to Fishermans Wharfe by taxi. Cable cars & "crooked Street" walkable if fit. The motel is an agent for open topped "Hop on-Hop off" double decker bus, and one of its stops is opposite the hotel. We found this very useful, & saved us having to use the car to negotiate S/F's traffic. Only runs from 9am-6pm, but tickets last 24 hrs. from time bought. Does complete curcuit of city. We took it down to The Golden Gate Bridge. Got off, walked over the bridge, and got on a bus the other side. They run roughly every 15-20 mins. Found the lady and the couple manning reception friendly & helpful. We found the continental breakfast good. Fresh apples/bananas. Coffe/tea/juice. Cakes/danish. Help yourself in reception & take back to room. Downside-- noisy at night if you have nocturnal neighbours. Yes, you can hear traffic, but as background rather than intrusive. But walls are thin, & if you are trying to get over jet lag, the last thing you want is the person upstairs walking around at 3am, or hearing the sink run or toilet flush every time.
