Good value hotel
The Coventry Motor Inn is situated on Lombard St very near two key bus stops. One will take you to GG Bridge and Park and the other to downtown and Fisherman’s Wharf. The bus is the way to travel in San Francisco so the fact this is outside downtown should not be an issue. The area itself is functional, not the place for an evening meal (hop on the bus for that) but there are a few options for breakfast (noting breakfast is not provided at the Inn). The only nearby tourist point is the bendy street but that is a tough up hill walk from the Inn. 
The Inn provides free on site, undercover parking and good value accommodation for a city like San Francisco. Our room was clean with a good amount of space, big tv and comfortable beds and had free wifi. The bathroom was small but functional. The room was however quite dark as it only had one window facing an internal service courtyard. It was however quiet as it did not face the busy Lombard St. 
The staff were helpful and friendly and we enjoyed our 3 nights.
