Town House Motel

Walls were pretty thin so we heard the neighbors. Nothing special, good for the money we spent, parking was included which was great.

Pros: Great location that is close to lots of walking and bay & easy on-site parking was a huge bonus. Comfy bed w/ hot shower and good water pressure. Check-in was friendly. Dated but very clean and everything seemed to work just fine. Cons: No in-room coffee or any served in lobby, but a decent coffee shop is 4-blocks away on Van Ness. Extra pillows (only 3 were on bed) would have been handy for a king size, 2-person bed, and no wash clothes, but that might have been a one-off on replenishing the room by staff. Only one outlet available in the room that we could find (besides bathroom) and it was being used by lights.

inexpensive place, nice friendly staff, close to restaurants and shopping, bed was comfortable, parking was tight wouldn't recommend large vehicles, the tv in the room was unplugged and there was no volume control, the bathroom was ok, overall, not a bad place to stay could use a fresh coat of paint and deep cleaning in the bathroom. we would stay here again though

the beds no microwave good value for the area

Free parking was the only plus. Otherwise, the facilities and the room were dirty, shabby. There were no washcloths. Shower door would not close and there was mold in the shower. Floor didn’t seem to have cleaned once during our 3 night stay because someone else’s hair was there all the time. Man at the front desk was friendly when I checked in but then was inaccessible. The room lacked any means to heat water for tea, but the office was locked 24 hr so there was no way to just make tea. online advertising indicated free breakfast and photos showed continental breakfast. But I woke up office man at 8am who simply stated there was no breakfast, no explanation.

Parking included

Everything was great. I love the free parking. Will be coming here again

Clean and good area to stay in. Good price, rooms look a little dated but they were clean and quiet. Would stay here again, free parking was a big plus.

For the price with parking included not bad. Plenty of food and restaurants in the area. Fridge and microwave in the room is great! Iron and board was helpful. Safe area as well. Service was nice enough. I had to plug in the tv for it to turn on and/or off and there is no way to adjust the volume so that’s weird. AC/Heater worked well. Bathroom…it’s not my favorite and could use a mold/mildew grout treatment. Again, it’s a low priced motel with parking so I got what I expected.

Staff was very helpful when asked where to eat close by Area ok. No where to make coffee since microwave is inside office that doesn’t open until 9 am.

Clean room, a bit tired outside but overall a good choice

The only thing going for this place is the location. Otherwise it is horrible. Black mold in the shower and fridge. Dirty ice from the ice machine. Stains on the towels and sheets and walls so thin you can hear everything in the next room

Clean quiet convenient

Nice staff. Very clean place. Good comfy bed

Everything was in a state of disrepair. The blinds were broken. There was a board in the window to prevent people from seeing in the window. There was no screen on the window though there were on other units. Everything was stained or ripped. Sleeping on the ground would have been more comfortable than that mattress. There was not a fitted sheet. It was a flat sheet on a stained mattress on a box spring that had the bottom ripped out. There was mildew in the shower. It smelled a little bit of piss in the bathroom. There wasn't a chain on the door, it made me really uncomfortable. The phone could not have been dirtier or more beat looking. I didn't try the television, AC, or coffee maker, and I think you would be taking your life in your hands eating ice out of that ice machine. I think the prices in San Francisco are ridiculous at this point and it is priced for what it is in that town but it was so uncomfortable. I'm cheap enough that I stayed both nights but disgusted enough that I paid $25 extra dollars to fly out of town 2 hours faster. Location is walkable to stuff which is nice , staff is nice, but the state of disrepair is really unforgivable. I do believe they are washing the linens and sheets but they may be throwing them on the floor at some point because there was a whole bunch of hair on the sheets.

While the rate was affordable for this area I thought the facility could have been in better shape. The decor and structure was really outdated. For the most part it was very clean but I did see some areas that could use paint, caulk, and better cleaning.

Cheap, convenient location. Close to restuarants and walk to fishermans wharf. We were allocated a room where 2 lights were out, hairdryer did not work, filthy shower area with drain cover damaged, shower screen stuck when opening and black mould. All rooms appear to have shutters which dont block out light so was like sleeping in the daytime. Asked to be moved next day..room was cleaner but hairdryer so old totally unsafe to use. Fridge freezer totally iced up. Towels and bed linen clean but so old and thin. Towels had fraying edges. So, if you want cheap and a convenient location give it a go...i would look elsewhere. Also dont let reception grab your passport and take into the back room along with your credit card...dodgy to say the least!

This hotel is very out dated and in serious need of upgrading. The carpet was sticky, there was something black splattered on the wall by the air conditioner, the toilet was duct taped together, and the floor wasn’t vacuumed very well (dust along the edges) also the bathroom wall paper was peeling and there was black in the shower. Not worth what we had to pay for it.

Clean and covers the basics. Faint smell as some mentioned but barely noticeable and typical in any old building.

The room smell bad, did not look clean

Walls were pretty thin so we heard the neighbors. Nothing special, good for the money we spent, parking was included which was great.

Room was so outdated, had a funky smell and just felt generally unclean even after it had just been cleaned, it is in need of a serious refresh. Dusty and old. Bed was hard and sheets were scratchy My shower door was broken and I could barely get it open but the water pressure was good The walls were so thin between rooms I could hear every word they were saying in the room next door. And the room above. Which was at one time a very heated argument. I felt a little bit unsafe for this reason. There were no extra locks on the door to lock from the inside as well which as a solo traveler I always would prefer to give me that extra level of safety in my room such as a chain lock. Location is good, 10 minute walk to fisherman’s wharf and close to lots of shops and restaurants

Shabby room and noisy heater. Coffee machine didn't work.

I have stayed here many times since the 80s. Now I hadn’t stayed here in about 10 years, I got a good deal and despite the reviews decided to roll the dice. I arrived around 3pm, the first thing I noticed was all the weeds in the parking lot, it looked unkempt. The room hasn’t changed in all these years, same bedspread, dingy looking carpet, walls looked need paint and really dark lighting. The lampshades were discolored and needed to be replaced. This place needs a total remodel and if the owners are unwilling they should sell, I would be embarrassed if I was the owner of this business. I stayed for two days, will never stay here again.

Clean enough and safe enough stopover in SFO. Parking tight but every unit has a spot. Rooms a bit worn, and only one staircase for upper level so some fire exit worries (and a bit of a dark stair corner to negotiate). Priced OK for what is offered.

Positives: Close to a lot of landmarks - quick and easy check-in and our beds were made the next day. Air conditioner was nice. Fridge was useful! Negatives: I am worried about some of the plug sockets. Quite a few were burned. Also, the TV didn’t work, and there’s no microwave to reheat food. Ditch the burlap sack pillows too lol.

The hotel looks like it's not open but if you get closer it is, just not busy. The room is dated but clean. So far so good until i needed to shower. I let the water run, no hot water. I ran it for 10 minutes still no hot water. I went to the front desk waited for anyone. They must of change shifts because now i have a guy to explain my situation. He tells me this happens? I tell him, "then why give out these rooms" ? He was apologetic and gave me a room facing the inside of the property. This place has a lot of rooms but it appears they tend to give out the rooms that faces towards the road. I speculate the rooms facing the road are problem rooms. I say this because my second room was much better and nicer than my 1st room. No problems it had more amenities in it. So thats how we do it here? If you go with this place ask to see the room first, then request a room that faces in on the property.

Noisy

Room was outdated.

With an update in the rooms this place would be perfect.

The staff was accommodating at a very late hour and were very friendly and understanding.

The staff were extra friendly and a good resource for information about the town!

Staff was nice

Great for the price the staff was very nice.

Hotel Management was Disrespectful abd rude. TV and sone of the lighting was not functuonal. NOT HAPPY and to contact Hotels com in order for my concerns to be addrrssed..

Wow, I was pleasantly surprised by this place. Great, comfortable bed. Really fast + helpful front desk. Spacious room. 2 nice tables that I could work at. Good hot water and shower pressure. It's not the Four Seasons but really great value, and you can tell the staff care. Thank you Townhouse Motel!

This was my first time staying at a motel and in a completely new city at that and I am glad I chose to stay at Townhouse. After having read some of the reviews on Google, I feel like the service and staff has greatly improved from the past. I booked a standard king room and was quite pleased. I kept my expectations low to begin with and hence wasn't disappointed. The motel was fully booked up and so I couldn't check in as early as I would've wanted but Andy at front desk checked me in an hour earlier than standard time. The room was definitely old as is the motel itself and it had some drawbacks like the frayed edges of the carpet, the blow dryer and iron box not working but those were very minor inconveniences to me. The room and the bathroom were very clean and stocked with the essentials. The fridge was in perfect working condition. The bed was very comfortable and cozy which was great because the room was slightly on the chilly side( I don't think heating is an option) . But once you are under the covers, you are warm and toasty. The location of the motel was great as it was walkable distance (at least for me) to fisherman's wharf, Ghirardelli square, golden gate etc - all the spots I hit. There was one incident worth noting, where my key card wouldn't work on the first night. But Andy and the maintenance guy were on top of it and it was fixed the very next day. Over all a 4/5 imo and good value for your money. Special S/O to Andy and I wanna say Eric (maintenance guy).

The location was perfect. A $10 Lyft ride to pretty much anywhere in the city. Will definitely stay again.

Check in process was smooth. The rooms are a bit dated and in need of some love, but overall for the price I am very satisfied. It’s also close to lots of shopping and is walkable if you don’t mind a 10-15 minute walk

The motel is pretty outdated, but the location is great. Walkable distance to many attractions.

Walking around San Francisco can be a challenge, especially with all the hills. Despite that, this place is close enough to the pier (like 15 mins).

We were very pleased with location. Walking distance to Lombard Street, The Wharf & Ghirardelli café. We recommend.

Good location. Decent room. Cheap. Trifecta.

Absolutely quite ok price in really great location.

Enjoyed our 2 night stay. Nothing fancy but works for sleeping/getting ready. Location was good and parking felt safe. Easy check in/check out process too

It’s a motel in good location with a great price. Staff is friendly and parking free. Its not fancy but definitely does the job.

My friend and I stayed here to bartend pride weekend. It was the nicest cheap option away from all the craziness with being a quick Uber away from civic center. Location was great. Great restaurants and bars were super close. Our room wasn’t bad. Definitely some wear and tear on walls and doors but air conditioner was amazing, beds were comfy, car was safe. We were able to leave our car while we worked the festival for half the price of a parking garage. Brothers were SUPER nice. Would stay here again.

The property is located at walking distance to the marina and Golden Gate bridge. Lombard street is probably the best sreet for a short stay. The motel is missing coffee maker, but there's a fridge. Bathroom is worn-out, but functional.

I had low expectations so wasn't shocked. Staff not a happy crew, but if you're polite, they will be as well. Room 106 Issues: Couple of the lights didn't work, couple outlets didn't work, blinds didn't open, neighbors above and beside were crazy loud, lombard road is crazy loud, TV didn't work, shower dripped non stop loudly (couldn't make it stop). Didn't need to look hard to see dirt and overall grubbiness. Upsides: good location, bed fairly comfy and sheets seemed clean. With high quality earplugs and a pillow over my head, I slept well!

I’ve stayed here for years. Rooms use to be clean. They would have a microwave and keurig for coffee. Now they are dirty, rooms have a weird smell. Every room seems to have something wrong. One of my towels were stained. Tv didn’t work they use to have a table to eat at they don’t have that anymore either. Needless to say I will be looking somewhere else to stay from now on
