My family and I was there for a day to experience the 4th of July fireworks celebration held on the bay. Stay there allowed to walk to the event. Great customer service. Easy checking in close to places to eat and have a quick late night drink. Secured parking..
1-night trip

10/10

Great staff. Fantastic free parking. Clean room. Just a few short blocks to Fishermans Wharf and Ghirardelli square. Right by all of the public transporation like the bus and the cable car. If we were going somewhere else besides on those routes, everything was just a ahort Waymo or Uber away. Only one very small thing was our room didn't have a mini fridge.

This a 2 star motel absolutely under starred. Minimum 3 star this is an excellent motel. Drove from Las Vegas San Francisco to receive totally free parking included in the price. Plenty of eaterys and bars, especially the international bar across the road. Spacious room all fairly modern great access to the piers only 15 minutes walk for Alcatraz tours. Cannot say enough good about the Columbus motel. Just book and relax 😁😁😁

The room was very spacious and clean. The bed was comfy, the water tasted fine, the staff were friendly, and my car was safe in the garage for a week. The location is also pretty great since it's near stuff and accessible to transit, including the cable cars.

We had a great stay. FREE parking, spacious room, and comfy king size bed. Walkable to everything on the pier 39 and pier 33 Alcatraz, to the trolly"s and Lombard Street and seals. Bus # 30 stockton in front if you want to go to a Giants game and take the Hyde trolly back.Starbucks around the corner next to Mason trolly..Breakfast spots & Walgreens nearby. Not a 5-star hotel but a 5-star DEAL.Hidden Gem. Neighborhood is Quiet, we stayed 4 nights and walked alot and had No problems.
