Good verses upgrading

The location to Fisherman’s Wharf is excellent. Staff was friendly and helpful. The Inn was under renovations, too much of the old was poor. Some outlets did not function, but there was also a problem with the toilets. We were in two different rooms and neither toilet functioned properly. As they complete the upgrade we would recommend it for location, great security, good internet, comfy beds and good caring staff.

Great location and budget rate

Great location. Walk to everything! The inn is very dated but generally clean. The room was fine especially for the price. There is no AC so really need to keep windows open. It’s a bit noisy. The lights outside the room shine into the room and curtains do not fully cover so lots of light on both ends and the center.

Great location, but extra fees take away from the experience The Wharf Inn has an amazing location — just steps from Fisherman’s Wharf, with easy access to the pier, restaurants, and shops. Check-in was quick and the staff was friendly, which made things easy after a long drive. The downside is that the hotel itself feels a bit dated and can get noisy at night. The walls are thin, so you can hear sounds from the street and other guests. What was most disappointing was the $30 per night parking fee. Since I was already staying at the hotel, it felt like something that should be included, not an extra charge. Overall, it’s an okay place if location is your main priority, but the added fees and noise make it less of a good value.

The property owner is a wonderful person. The location is impeccable. The downside was that I was surrounded by very noisy people. The rooms have no air conditioning, which were only needed during the day. The windows were small, so it was hard to get any circulation. The bed can best be described as a very plush mattress cover wrapped around concrete. They were very hard to sleep on. The wharf is not what it used to be and the property of the Inn was in good condition, had obvious improvements needed. For the price, it was a good stay. I do wish that I would have spent a little more for a more comfortable and quiet location, but I did really enjoy my stay otherwise.

The great location does not offset the lack of cleanliness and room security. There was no air conditioning in the room and the windows had no screens on them (minimal airflow). We found cigarette butts in the hallways just outside our room door. We were tempted to stay here for the parking convenience (which we paid for) but wish we had stayed somewhere else.

Room clean, bed comfy, plenty of hot water for showers. There is no air conditioning and it was rather warm in our room. They do have fans. Hallways are a little outdated. The location is amazing. Fisherman’s Wharf and Pier 39 right there outside door of hotel. Parking is $30 but well worth the ease and safety factor. Would stay here again

We booked the inn due to location it is walking distance to Ghirardelli square, fisherman’s warf and pier 39. You can’t really hear your neighbors unless window is open. The room was clean bed was soft. We had a fridge which was not cold cold but kept things cool so I guess it did its job. There is a shared microwave for each floor. The room does not have air conditioning & the only window capable of letting air in has no screen & wouldn’t close & it’s inconveniently located right next to the door safety lock which I discovered you can stick your hand in to unlock the safety latch which is a MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE!!! The bathroom was small WOULD NOT RECOMMEND IF YOUR ON THE HEAVIER OR TALL SIDE. I’m fairly thin and only 5’5 and found sitting on the toilet my knees almost touched the wall in front of me. They do provide pumps with body soap shampoo & conditioner in the shower. The hotel it’s self Rundown at best it looks like their doing minor upgrades, there was water in the stairwell look like water was leaking from a pipe. The elevator says 2000lbs weight limit, when my family of 3 and 2 other people were in the elevator it made the scariest of sounds to hear while moving some cars are exposed to weather in the garage but it is gated from public. ISSUE I HAD is the gate can only be opened by staff & they were on lunch when we were coming back for the night no one was there & there’s no key card or code to let yourself in. Parking is $30 a night early parking is $15 extra
