Motel 6 San Francisco, CA Civic Center

This was perfect place to stay. Clean and friendly staff. We really enjoyed “Chambers” restaurant across the street. It’s old building so small elevator and crooked stairs. I’d totally stay there again. Beds were very comfy. We parked at cova hotel valet parking which is around the corner. It was awesome.

The hotel lacks any coffee service or continental breakfast. No plugs near the bed.

It remodeled but stil has a lot problems tv has issues, restroom flash doesn’t work No any shampoo the soaps was dry.these are dry. Supplies in hotels are the most important and guests cannot take something like that on our package. The room was very hot and sometimes very cold.elevator is very dangerous because the second door not be able to control it to keep open and going out from elevator. Looks like this hotel no any quality so expensive no find any park space and I paid one night public parking 55$ and seems it needs review and make all structures again Thanks

Internet is very bad. Didn't expect the elevator is old style. You can hear the noise outside.

Didn’t even stay, there’s no real sign of where the entry is , homeless swarms around building day/ night. No parking anywhere around and even if there were any , your car would probably be broken into. Don’t stay there

An older renovated building, for the price was nice an convenient. The area has a lot of homelessness but is not unsafe, and central for getting around. During our stay the coffee machine, and elevator were out of service which was unfortunate and a bit frustrating.

The room itself was fine. I should’ve done more research to see what the neighborhood was like. No on-site parking..

No parking and I get a ticket for that

I liked that the entrance door was secured, accessible only by front desk or room key. Staff were friendly and helpful. Clean & spacious room, absolutely loved the bed, so comfy and warm. Beautiful bathroom, just wished they would've refill bathroom accessories. Enjoyed the smart TV. Sadly, there is absolutely no safe parking near the hotel unless you want to pay about $45 and drive 5mins to a lot and then walk about 4 blocks back to the hotel through some very sketchy and dangerous streets; overwhelmed with homeless people. Way too loud, walls & windows are paper thin, I wasn't able to sleep from all the noise. I ended up parking infront of the hotel on the side of the road but I was lucky to find a spot and just payed the meter but still got a parking ticket since it only let's you pay a certain amount of time. The hotel is a bit hard to find but it is literally on the corner. It was a decent night charge for being in SF and the lovely room but I wouldn't stay again.

The parking structures charged over $40 a day, this was not noted anywhere on the hotels site. People in the hotel causing noise until 3:00 am. There was a lot of homelss people everywhere. As we walked to the hotel, a man was pooping on thrle street. We did not feel safe at all. The hotel rooms was ean but small.

No ventilation in bathroom and there was no housekeeping. Had to ask for fresh towels multiple times. I don’t know if understaffed but overall difficult to get help. Location has good restaurants nearby, but is incredibly noisy at night due to large homeless population nearby.

The room renovation at this property is nice. New paint and furnishings are throughout, along with ceiling fans. No chair with the desk, though. However, that's all the positive things. The rooms felt damp, and significant amounts of black mold were visible above the window frames. The surrounding neighborhood had drug sales and activity on every block. A portable public bathroom powered by a gas generator ran throughout the night and was unavoidable in the room 6 floors up. The Uber driver even asked me why I stayed in such an unsafe area and to check my shoes for needles.

clean hotel, you get what you paid for. Super convenient to many food places and shops. Alot of homeless but if you mind your business they don't bother you. I will stay at this hotel again.

The area is horrible! We couldn’t even walk around without feeling safe. We found 2 live roaches in our room & the staff had no bug spray or anything. No phone, air or heater in the room. The room also has no insulation so we were able to hear everything in the hallway. The staff were welcoming but that’s about it.

I love this hotel, the staff there are nice and professional. The rooms are clean and spacious!

Their was no AC and a heater that they couldnt turn off that made the room soo hot you barely stand to be in there and when we were trying to figure out how to shut off the heater a swarm of cockroaches came out of the floor and went up the walls. I had never seen something like that! For being on the 4th floor we also felt that it was a hazard that one of our windows could open up completely and had no screen or anything and was just soo close to the bed it felt like someone could fall out. The other window did not prop open and over all things were broken, not working, dirty and extremely old and the staff was absolutely no help whats so ever. The area is also soo scary and soo many homeless people and their staff members were letting them in to use the restroom!!! I felt soo scared and unsafe we had to immediately leave and figure out other accommodation’s . This was the worst experience ive ever had anywhere

Nice rooms very clean

Beds were comfy and clean. Floor seemed a bit gritty. Hair in the shower that wasn’t ours. Baseboards need dusting.

The hotel was clean, quiet and spacious. The staff was also professional and nice!

Smelly inside and outside the hotel facilities.

My room was beautiful and bright. Loved the staff, decor and the old San Francisco vibe. My one problem was the furnace. I had a hard time turning it off because it’s an old design. I suffered from pretty bad allergies, stuffiness, sneezing and developed a rash from having it on. Once I finally got it to turn off with the help of the front desk, my symptoms slowly got better.

So, this is an honest review. I was curious about the hotel b/c the pictures of rooms honestly looked good, but I also read some of the reviews. Decided to book it anyhow. This is an honest review. I was curious about the hotel b/c the pictures of rooms honestly looked good, but I also read some of the reviews. Decided to book it anyhow. 1st comment mirrors others made: this is a suspicious area for those not familiar with The Tenderloin (I was). Sadly, some blocks that lead to the hotel are busy with homeless and transient types. Not horrible, just unsightly at times. It can get a little noisy (depending on where you're facing) if you're a light sleeper, but not horrible. That said, room was great, large, bright, clean, linoleum *wood* flooring, clean shower. My only real complaint was no fridge, so not storing food (fruits, yogurt, drinks) was a bummer since leaving for food was tiresome (I don't do food deliveries). The desk wasn't amazing, but was fine. Would I recommend it? It depends on your tolerance for *funny* areas. I would not take kids with me. Would I stay there again? Yes! Affordable and I was there 1 week. The nice front desk lady let me pick my room when I checked in. I was honestly pleasantly surprised. I walked everywhere but did take the bus twice which dropped me off IN FRONT of the hotel. Summary: is it a clean hotel? Yes. Is it adjacent to some unsightly blocks? Yes. But TBH, this is a SF issue (a very sad one). Hope this helped!

Property recently renovated. Rooms a bit small but nice, no AC however. Area outside is scary however many areas in San Francisco are scary with the homeless problem. Staff nice. Uber in/uber out and you will be fine

nice staff, clean room. But any breakfast or ice or anything extra you can forget about. Also I didn't personally mind but the neighbourhood because it's right downtown but it is very rough. Like crackhead rough. lots of yelling all night.

Wifi don’t available

It was motel 6 pricing but the bed pillows and restroom felt nothing like other motel 6 and was the comfiest/modern touch to it!

Area around hotel is disgusting, you can see poop, pee every where. For the room, there’s no air conditioner.

This hotel itself is excellent. Was able to do an early check in and had a wonderful room on the 6th floor with a view. Staff were friendly and provided a great experience. Neighborhood was a bit sketchy but I would stay again. 5 Stars 👍

My phone did not work tv was having conection issues david at front desk was a god send very helpful tried yo fix tv issues very good employee i thought needs a raise in his pay.

No ventilation in bathroom and there was no housekeeping. Had to ask for fresh towels multiple times. I don’t know if understaffed but overall difficult to get help. Location has good restaurants nearby, but is incredibly noisy at night due to large homeless population nearby.

The room was clean and bed comfortable. The hotel is located toward the end of the Tenderloin district at the beginning of little Saigon. Just to let others know. I had no problems, but it can be a little uncomfortable to see homeless people outside the door of the hotel if you are not used to it. Little Japan and Nob Hill are within walking distance and very nice to visit. Also, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Special note goes to the young man working the weekends who handled a difficult situation with the utmost respect and professionalism.

I loved the hotel, it was quiet, clean, spacious, and the staff was very nice! I will be back!

Where do I start… Area of city is awful, couldn’t go out at night, upon arrival, staff member checking us in, burped in my face, was rude, first night in room with phone line cut, no smoke detector, tried to have shower, faucet fell off in my hand, couldn’t turn water off, second room, no wifi, went to get ready for day next morning, had a tour booked, no water, water was off until 1500, think they are still renovating, drills, grinding started early am, all night long upstairs banging, dragging furniture. Do not stay here, staff unhelpful, staff that didn’t move us argued we were not in room we were moved to, but still in original room, I travelled extensively and have never experienced such a awful hotel stay.

Maid walked in on me in the bathroom. Didn’t knock.

2 stars is generous. No heat. Nice TV on wall, was not connected. No desk help. No toiletries. Frightening neighborhood (I’ve felt safer in the slums of Rio).

Hotel was decent,area around is tough and rough.

A 2-star hotel gets that rating based on amenities and location. I stay at such Places when on business because I’m busy 12 hours a day and just need a place to sleep This is an old, refurbished in the Tenderloin, a notoriously high crime area of SF with large homeless community. People need to know that going in. Such places rise and fall on cleanliness and the attitude and responsiveness of staff. This place gave me a clean room, spotless bathroom, good service and secure front door. Excellent value for the money

Pictures do not match what we were given. Front desk area looks nothing like the pictures. Room barely fit the two beds. Both windows face walls about 2ft apart. The area is extremely unsafe, dirty and loud.

Didn’t even stay, there’s no real sign of where the entry is , homeless swarms around building day/ night. No parking anywhere around and even if there were any , your car would probably be broken into. Don’t stay there

This area did not feel safe at all.

it was a good hotel unfortunately it was in an undesirable neighborhood

The place didn't feel safe. Surroundings doesn't feel safe. Entrance is scary, the lobby does not feel safe. We were waiting to get out from the place as soon as possible.

Anything I needed was provided by the staff upon request. The room itself was nice and had all I needed. However, the property was advertised as \'breakfast included\' which it was not. Also "daily housekeeping\' really was cleaning upon request. Not bad value but I was expecting more based on the details when booking.

The hotel lacks any coffee service or continental breakfast. No plugs near the bed.

The rooms were large and very clean. Shower water was only tepid at best. One has to walk a few blocks or so to find a nice restaurant. Area could be a bit scary at first. Nice staff. I plan to stay there again.

The facility had a table in the lobby for eating. Nice coffee machine.

The property is located in an area of San Francisco with the highest rating of violent crime. There is no onsite parking available, so walking to and from the hotel and paid parking is unsafe. The streets are lined with homeless and smell of strongly of urine. The loud sound of people on the streets and from other hotel rooms can be heard all through the night. Complimentary breakfast is not included as stated, coffee maker in lobby was broken. Overall very uneasy feeling during entire stay.
