Ocean Inn

I had 3 nights at Ocean Inn. Wonderful location, near to the beach and 2 mins walk to Golden Gate Park, and a safe community. I will stay here again, for sure, next time i visit SF.

The room was directly above a bar. It was loud until midnight. My second night the party seemed to move to the room above me and it was loud until 2 am. The smoke alarm in the room started to beep at 5am from the low battery. The room was not very clean. The soap and shampoo dispenser did not work It was not a good choice of a hotel.

Although room and property were clean, there were glaring problems. My room was the only one with a physical key that opened my door. The knob was installed backward. This was the only lock on the door (as a solo woman I was uncomfortable). I thought there had to be secondary locks. There was no evacuation information either. The room was barren, no real place to sit but the bed in such a big room. The desk is not a desk, it is a side table too high for utilizing as a desk (I had to work hovered over the bed). Only mirror was a small one above the sink, too high to see myself. Although the hotel advertised parking it was VERY limited. There was NO place for me to park when I returned after dinner. After realizing the closest parking space was blocks away, I pointed out their listing stated parking was included and the clerk moved his car from the handicapped spot and moved it into a garage near the property (I believe this was the owner, but then why are you taking up spots advertised to patrons?). Groups of men were congregating and drinking in the parking area further making it difficult to park. The clerk said they were always there.

Can be noisy at night At night it can be noisy because of bar downstairs. Everything was fine here. I love the location

I like that it was close to UCSF, but it is a noisy area. Free parking is a plus, but it is first come basis. There is available parking on street as well. Walking distance to beach was nice, but it was super windy and cold when we were there. The Tran runs all day and night which is pretty noisy and there is a bar downstairs that can get noisy as well. Luckily we were there during the week. Overall it is not a bad area.

i had seen another review about the noise and yeah this time i heard it alot more the little bar under the hotel gets cracking lol but still not a problem played some white noise on the tv and slept pretty great. room is super clean, parking this time was a bit of a issue but the front desk took care of it. 10/10 will continue to stay here.
