Located in the heart of the Castro, Beck’s Motor Lodge feels like the 1950s motel that it is, renovated with heaps of hip details. The 58-room budget motel has retro touches throughout: a brash orange-and-blue exterior, round analog clocks in the rooms, and a funky cosmic light fixture and free bubble gum in the lobby. The reasonably sized rooms are bright and modern, and large, shower-only bathrooms have tile floors in colorful geometric designs. Free parking is a valuable and rare perk in San Francisco. The lodge has an ideal neighborhood location but isn’t close to traditional tourist hotspots such as Union Square and Fisherman’s Wharf. Those who want to be closer to the action should check out the Herbert Hotel, another stylish budget hotel, on the cable car line below Union Square.
