Hotel was not very clean especially outside! Needs a good deal of updating inside and out! While there I accidentally left my Apple Watch and they claimed they didn’t find it. I would not recommend this hotel while in San Francisco!

Wharf Inn made a very busy professional week easy, thanks to staff. Easy check in process, super clean room, and very good wi-fi for my early morning business Zoom calls. Just two blocks away is a Trader Joes and starbucks. And I was the only person to take a cable car to my conference downtown!

Staff was kind and courteous. Interior of rooms were not particularly nice, but were recently updated. However, we could clearly hear people walking the people in the room above us - to the point it was hard to sleep. Also, the exterior and stairwells were dingy. Great location though.

The room we were given had a faulty lock and we could not open it. We were given another room facing the street, which was less preferrable. There was construction ongoing in multiple neighboring rooms. The bathroom in the room had an open shower draining on the floor of the bathroom.

They only had a blanket and would charge me with $20 per night for an additional comforter. The location near fisherman's wharf is great. Gated parking is also great, though they charged me $30 per night for parking through Expedia. Because the cost of parking is still competitive compared to the near parking lot.

The hotel was in older condition but felt secure, even tho in a high traffic tourist area. Location made up for everything - we walked to Fisherman’s Wharf, the sea lions and restaurants, Ferris wheel, and Boudin Bakery and cafe.

no air conditioner and the room seemed to get stuffy not cold enough to need a heater but the fan above the bed wasn't enough. The shower curtain wasn't long enough so water splashed around the bathroom and even triple checking it was turned off the shower dripped all night. It made me understand Edger Allen Poe's "a tale tell heart." The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and it was an extremely convenient location. Only a 5 minute walk to the pier.
