We stayed here for six nights to be with friends who were also staying here. While it is all ok, this is a really noisy hotel and we could get other rooms on the same street for much less money and as good rooms. We wouldn't come back here again.

Stayed here for 3 nights with my wife recently. We chose this place as it was within our budget but mostly because of the free parking which seems to be a bit of a nightmare in SF. Arrived after a long drive from Vegas and was checked in swiftly by an extremely pleasant lady at the desk which def impressed... More

We chose Cow Hollow after reading the good reviews on Trip Advisor. We stayed for two nights while visiting San Francisco and we were very happy with the low room price, free parking (in a covered and very clean parking lot), free wifi, and comfy room. It was in a nice part of town, the staff were very friendly and... More

My husband and I stayed at Cow Hollow Motor Inn for 12 nights and we were very happy with our room. The hotel is very clean and strategically located. The room came with a good king-sized bed, tv, wifi connection, coffee/tea-making facilities and the shower pressure was good. Yes, it is true that the hotel decor is dated but there... More

The hotel was old, very basic, nothing fantastic but it was clean, the staff was helpful, priced right and in an amazing location. I would not recommend this hotel if you are planning on staying in and having a relaxing and quiet trip. But if you want a suitable, clean and inexpensive place to stay that puts you in the... More

Convenient location. Lot of restaurant nearby, close by the bay, Feel in a really secure area. MUNI system was efficient. Around 30 mins to go to downtown, and 15 mins to Fisherman Wharf. Noise level didn't really bother us even in front room. However, we didn't like all the excuses at the check-in, Make your website reservation clear. I've been... More

We were three separate families meeting in San Francisco, and we all stayed at the Cow Hollow. We were not looking for luxury, but something affordable, clean, and in a good location. The Cow Hollow was perfect. It was clean, quiet, comfortable and in a nice neighborhood with lots of little cafe's and shopping. Some of the family members had... More

This budget hotel is in a good location and meets basic needs. Our room looked like it had new rugs and wall paper. Amenities were shampoo & conditioner and room coffee maker. Lots of restaurants on Chestnut St. (one block away). Convenient to bus to tourist areas. Close enough to walk to Presidio and GG bridge.

Will give this property a "4" since it could definitely use some updates in rooms and halls. We booked 2 nights and stayed 5. A quick drive out of the city made it easy to do day trips to Napa, Sonoma and Point Reyes. Price was right, parking free and location also perfect for taking transit around San Fran. Its... More

I guess you get what you pay for. The price was around $100 with free parking, which is nice in San Francisco. The rooms are a nice size with a comfortable bed, but furniture is a little dated. Main problem is the street noise from Lombard Street, which does not stop. The windows are single pane with latches at the... More
