Although we enjoyed our stay at the Tuscan Inn it wasn't all I'd hoped it would be. Probably because I was so disappointed in the Fisherman's Wharf area itself. It was really dirty, crowded, crime-ridden and touristy. The food was bad and overpriced in general. The only place I really liked were some of the places on Pier 39, but I wouldn't eat at a sit-down restaurant here. I would stay in North Beach or Sausalito next trip. Food in North Beach was fabulous!.
As far as the hotel, the room was clean but small. Beds very comfortable - we had a King with pull-out sofa for our 12-yr-old son. Nice big flat screen tv. They comped us an in-room movie when I reported that it was "jerky". Bathroom shower curtain reeked of mildew enough to smell up the room. I should have had them take it down and wash it, but probably got used to it. Staff was great. Concierge very helpful.
Location was convenient. Grocery store and Trader Joe's just down the block. Pretty close to North Beach and cable car stops.
One afternoon, a car window was broken right outside the hotel so they could steal the contents of the car. Lots of panhandlers. One lady reported cash was stolen out of her car by the valet parkers, but that was too stupid of her to leave it in the car. Parking at $45 a night was outrageous, but probably worth it to keep your car safe.
