The
Sea Captain
San
Francisco Motel

writes, "I paid $56 including tax.
The room included covered free parking. However, there was
a sour smell to the motel. My room had a large TV, but
there was a fair amount of street noise."
V.L. writes
, "The room was clean (no smell this time, only
difference from previous room), well-lit, had a 27" new TV
with remote, and the AC/Heater works reliably and well. Also,
because of the way the Sea Captain's built, if you stay in one of
the inner rooms you can't hear all the Lombard Street racket.
Continental breakfast and covered parking are included. The
price was again $56, to which a $5 key deposit is added for $61
you pay to stay. Remember to ask for that key
deposit back when you turn in your key the next morning as the office
is quite willing to let you forget.
Many of the hotels along Lombard Street have a sign advertising
$39 per night, and coupons in travel guides list the same price.
(If anyone has actually gotten that price please let me know.)
No matter which hotel you ask at, these supposedly walk-in only
special rooms are always "already taken,"
even if you name a date 2 weeks in the future. Even if it is
just a shill, it's a MUCH better value than the downtown motels.
There, you'll pay twice as much for amenities like paper-thin walls,
lumpy beds and the privilege of NOT having a bathroom or phone in
your room, and an extra $20/day to park offsite."

, "I just wanted to let you know that I am planning
a vacation for Thanksgiving weekend now, seeing as my boyfriend
and I have tried to walk-in to hotels here in the past and have
ended up paying ridiculous amounts of money for a room. I thought
I would plan ahead and I took your advice about Lombard St. budget
lodging-we used to live here, so we know the area is great-but could
never get a room on Lombard before if we came during the spring
or summer. After hearing the prices for The Sea Captain Inn were
so low, I called to inquire about a room, but the manager who answered
was so unbelievably rude that I became morally opposed to booking
a room with him. Besides, I couldn't really get any information
from him because he was busy snapping at me and he became annoyed
when I tried to confirm any info. I did get to make sure I had heard
him correctly. He must not need my business if he can afford to
be so rude. If any one else has had the same experience I would
be curious to know, because this was the key element that made me
never want to do business with the unfriendly staff at The Sea Captain
Inn. They blew it!"
