We stayed our last night in SF on 10/14. My experience was great. Large room, clean, shampoo/conditioner/body wash in the bathroom. The motel is what you pay for. It's in the city not sure why people expect it to be quiet. Normal sounds from a big city. Didn't bother us we slept just fine. The younger gentleman that assisted me at check in was nice, polite and patient as I had a bit of an issue with room key. I love that check out was at 12 pm gave us time to shower and get ready for the day. Older gentleman at check out was super nice and had a smile on his face the whole time.

Great location, reasonable price. Both Muni and Big Bus stop right outside the front door, making getting around the city very easy. Comfortable walking distance to Ghirardelli Square, Fisherman's Wharf, the world's crookedest street, and the Bay. Good, reasonably priced food is available nearby. John at the front desk was wonderfully helpful, letting us check in early and giving us a quiet room and a discount on Big Bus tickets. Can't quite give it a full 5 stars because the heater needed maintenance (loud and smelly) and a couple of other things didn't work properly. Also, this part of Lombard gets noisy (our room location on the back helped a lot). Would give it 4.5 stars if we could.

Hotel was fine; 3rd floor lounge and balcony were too small to accommodate more than 2 people; great value for tourist district given the guaranteed parking. No on-site breakfast but they offer local restaurant breakfast discounts. Would stay again.

We loved our stay at the buena vista inn! Everything was clean and easy, and everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful. The area felt safe and was walking distance to Ghiradelli square. We loved having our breakfast in the back garden each morning, what a lovely little hideaway! Overall, the space feels very cared for. We would stay here again for sure.

Disappointed
I’ve been to Buena Vista several times over the years, but this time the room wasn’t so good. First, the shower did not work. The lever was broken. The tissue box in the bathroom was completely empty. The clock in the room was not the correct time. The refrigerator made a very loud, annoying sound all night and we had to unplug it. Also, when we returned to park at the hotel after coming back from dinner, there were no parking spaces available except a very bad one that blocked another car from leaving, so I had to get up early to move it the next morning when someone else had left. It seems they are cutting costs and not paying attention to customer’s needs the way they used to.
