"This hotel is what it is. The most inexpensive place I could find in a somewhat decent neighborhood. The plus side is the close proximity to the BART station at 16th and Mission. Easy walk to the Judah line. Great coffee shop half a block north on Valencia. The place has character and is old school. Not a place to hang out and chill, but worked well as a place to sleep. "
"Had a great stay here at this place for 4 nights, was most affordable for me, walkable, close to beautiful parks, the area felt totally safe to me walking around at night. Bathroom was nice and roomy. I would definitely stay here again for a budget option! "
"This is an amazing place. The bed was good, breakfast was super, the owner is wonderful.
The best thing ws the amazing decor. There are so many amazing pieces and pictures.
It is a special place"

Top San Francisco Zoo Hotel Reviews
Mirage Inn and Suites
10/10 Excellent
"Affordable, clean stay in SF directly across from the Zoo, walk to Ocean Beach. Java Beach Café is right next door, highly recommend the Irish Soda Bread.We were here for Golf and it is 10 minutes drive to Harding Park. Be sure to take your clubs to your room because the parking lot is not gated. BUT, free parking, family friendly, safe, affordable…I highly recommend the Mirage for a short stay."
BRAND NEW - ENTIRE FLOOR w/ OCEAN Beach View and PARKING!
10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful spot! We would for sure book again.
Only small recommendation would be for instructions for the shower. We finally figured it out but it is a unique set up. "
"Our host was amazing!! Never had a more responsive and accomodating host! The place was so charming and comfortable in a very pretty and modern but classic San Francisco neighborhood. There was even a view of the Golden Gate bridge in the distance!"

"Great house with lots of room and beautiful backyard with nice hot tub! Location is nice but can be farther away from some tourist things if looking to do that. Close to the bus stop and grocery store."
