My Rosegarden Guest Rooms
Staying here for two nights was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—quiet street but just a short walk from the Presidio, making morning strolls absolutely peaceful and refreshing. We booked a lovely top-floor room with great natural light and a comfortable layout. Our hostess, Kathleen, was warm, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Each morning, she served a delicious and thoughtfully prepared breakfast that added to the cozy charm of the stay. After checking out, we realized we’d left behind a pair of earbuds. I reached out to Kathleen, and although they couldn’t find it right away, she had her team check thoroughly. Later, we got a message saying they’d found it in the laundry—and even shipped it back to us! That kind of care and attention to detail goes way beyond what you’d expect. It’s not just about comfort or cleanliness; it’s about hospitality with heart. I can’t recommend this place highly enough.

Cow Hollow Inn and Suites
I absolutely loved my stay at Cow Hollow Inn and Suites! The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped—definitely one of the best stays I've had in San Francisco recently. There’s a slight new-build smell from the furniture and wood, but it’s minimal and doesn’t detract from the overall experience—it actually adds to the fresh, modern vibe. The hair dryer was surprisingly powerful; it dried my hair in minutes, easily the strongest I’ve encountered in any hotel lately. Free parking is an absolute game-changer—can park until 4 PM on checkout day, so we could run errands or explore without rushing back. Both surface and underground parking are available, with the underground requiring just a swipe of the room key—no worries about car break-ins. The hallway and elevator access are also key-card only, which gives you that extra layer of security and peace of mind. The only downside? No laundry facilities on-site, but honestly, it’s not a dealbreaker. The neighborhood is fantastic—just a 2-minute walk to Peet’s Coffee, and there are countless great restaurants and cafés nearby. Pro tip: If you don’t want to be woken up early, hang the “Do Not Disturb” sign by 7 PM. The housekeeping staff knocks on every door around 8:30 AM with unwavering determination—very persistent, but kind of endearing in its own way!
Geary Parkway Motel
Amazing value for money! The motel is located in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood with no visible homelessness—something I truly appreciated. Free parking is a huge plus, especially since most hotels in San Francisco charge extra (and often quite a bit). Everything was clean and well-maintained—the linens and towels were fresh, and the room had a cozy feel despite the building being a bit older. What matters most to me? A comfortable bed and a strong shower—and this place delivered on both. If you're just passing through and need a solid night's sleep, this is more than enough. Plus, the area felt safe; we never worried about leaving belongings unattended. Perfect for budget-conscious travelers who want reliability and peace of mind.
