SOMA PARK INN, San Francisco

The motel sits at the corner of 9th and Mission streets, placing you near the Civic Center and Union Square (10-minute drive). BART is one block away (5-minute walk), offering direct routes across the city and to the airport. The neighborhood can feel gritty, especially on 9th Street, with significant street activity and noise at night. Walking via 7th or 8th Street may feel more comfortable. For car users, on-site parking is available but costs extra and leaves vehicles exposed to the street-leaving nothing in your car is advisable.

Each room is equipped with a microwave, refrigerator, tea and coffee-making facilities, flat-screen cable TV, ironing board, and free local calls. Some rooms also offer a balcony. Rooms are generally clean, well-sized, and comfortable, though the carpet and decor can feel dated. Upper-floor rooms are quieter; ground-floor rooms near stairs or the elevator can carry footstep noise. Lighting in photos is brighter than in reality. An elevator serves upper floors but is small in size. Earplugs are provided in rooms to help with street noise at night.

The motel has vending machines for drinks and a coffee machine in the lobby (available until 11 am). There is no breakfast service or restaurant on the property. A variety of dining options are located within 0.5 km, including Allstar Donuts and Sandwich, Focaccia Market and Bakery, Magic Wok, Cadillac Bar & Grill, and Cumaica Coffee.

SOMA Park Inn does not have a swimming pool, spa centre, or fitness facilities.

Wi-Fi is free in public areas and the lobby. The 24-hour front desk can assist with check-in, luggage storage, and basic queries. Fax and photocopying are available for a charge. The property has a lift, air conditioning throughout, key card access, and CCTV in common areas. Accessible parking and wheelchair-accessible rooms are available. Laundry is not on-site; a nearby laundry store is located on the same street.
