This was a return visit to the motel. It holds warm memories for our family. First, my now husband and I stayed there during a business trip 25 years ago, now my daughter and I stayed to look at colleges.
The setting is right out of Italy, beautiful gardens, warm and cozy interiors and some of the nicest people you'll ever meet in the staff. It is truly the best kept secret in SF. Parking is included, dogs are allowed in kitchenette suites.

Chestnut Street restaurants and bars are only a couple blocks away, the Marina, Palace of Fine Arts, Chrissy Field and beach are all a hearty walk away, and the rest of the city is easily accessible on the major arterials that connect through Lombard. I can't recommend it enough.
Stay in a place that feels like your own studio in San Francisco
