We found this in one of the brochures you can get all over the place in the US which advertise discounts at many hotels and motels. We were looking for a couple of nights for a family of 3 to see the sites - Alcatraz, Cable Cars and the shopping. We picked the motel due to it's close location to many of the popular tourist areas in San Francisco, and nearby access to public transport. There is inclusive parking which many hotels charge extra for, and whilst it isn't a 5 star property, the rooms were large and clean with refrigerator, microwave and flat screen TV. The guy on reception was very helpful and told us of the quickest way to get to the many attractions - fisherman's wharf, the shopping areas of Union Square and Westfield, the bridge and suchlike. He also advised of areas (or actually the area) to steer clear of - Tenderloin, but everywhere else was safe and no problems were encountered. We also got a good deal on the room rate which as it was a weekend was higher than on the weekdays. We got a good breakfast from Pete's Diner next door - the blueberry pancakes were great - and the staff very friendly. There was a little bit of noise at night, but this is in a central area. All in all a good deal and would recommend.
