We liked that they were only a block and 1/2 from Fisherman's Wharf. That's the reason they charged us $500 (tax included) a night. They rely, too much, on their location, location, location. They do not have air conditioning. We had to use 3 fans and leave the door open to cool the place down. Our microwave was not in the room. It was down the hall and to the left. Our view was of a brick wall. There's also a $30 a night for parking. No breakfast, no pool, only one bedside table and there was a lot of construction going on. All for the low-low price of $500 a night. Did I mention there was no A/C.

I would not recommend staying at the Wharf Inn. This facility is run down. Staff were very unhelpful. We arrived and their payment system was down. Was told to return with cash and when we did they said they wouldn’t accept it. We checked in after 3pm and when we went to the room it had not been serviced and we had to wait outside for 30 minutes. Staff were unhelpful when we asked questions. The immediate area was dirty and had vagrants on the street at all times.

Overall, choice place to stay. The staff were all really nice. Better than expected for the location. Nothing was bad. If you know SF you know that people here have to deal with a lot of different types of people. So nobody's kissing your a$$, unless you want to pay another 500/night somewhere. Everything was clean and at par for a typical hotel room. They are in the middle of an upgrade. So somethings are outdated and there's construction noise fairly early. Considering the private parking at $30/day and the location, and everything else... For SF this one is okay, definitely a 6/10 where to ten is 800+/night.
