6/10 Good

Staying here depends on your needs.
This is a VERY unique motel, probably built in the 40s. I can think of three reasons why you might want to stay here. 1) You are attending an event at the Cow Palace. It's a 10-15 minute walk; very convenient. This is why we were there. 2) You have a very early flight out of SFO and just need a place to sleep the night before. 3) You arrive very late at SFO, and have a long drive to your final destination. The room itself was clean, and it was very basic. There was a desk and chair, the bed, a night stand, a TV on the wall, a refrigerator and a microwave. I joked with my daughter that the "closet" was a stick-on hook on the back of the door. You have to live out of your suitcase. It appears there is construction going on in other rooms, because most of the covered parking stalls had stuff in them. You drive through an archway to the parking lot. I'd read reviews that parking was a problem, but we were able to get a space because we arrived early and didn't move the car. The bed was comfortable, and the shower had good pressure and plenty of hot water. The vanity was tiny, no room really to put anything bigger than a toothbrush. The soap appeared to be from Motel 6, and the conditioning shampoo came in a foil packet. There wasn't a screen on the window. The room was quite warm, so we had to run the A/C all night. The benefit was that it drowned out any traffic there might've been from the street. It would have been great if there had been a coffee maker.
