YES we have garage parking. And it's FREE! Parking restrictions can make you dizzy and spaces are hard to find most days so garages are essential if you are bringing a car.

There is a garage under the house with Free Parking for one Economy, Compact or Mid-size car  (NO Full size, Van or SUV - Maximum 88 inches wide and 190 inches long and 70 inches high - Contact Us if you have questions).  

A Mid-Size car will fit but an Economy or Compact is recommended if tight spaces and backing up 30 feet would be a challenge for you.  

Is it Important? Without a doubt! San Francisco, like many large cities, makes a great deal of money giving out parking tickets and they are very good at their job! There are many signs to read before you leave your car parked on the street. Two hour limits during the week. Street cleaning at least once a week and the ticket is $100 just for missing that little sign.  Unfortunately, all parts of the city experience break-ins for cars left in the street.

 It is really quite convenient and usually cheaper than getting around in a car.

Monthly visitors should consider buying a Clipper Card and Weekly visitors a 5 or 7 day pass (click here for complete fare info).

Catch the #5/5R Fulton bus one block from the flat.

You can be downtown at the Powell Street cable car terminal in about 20 minutes, just a short walk from Union Square shopping. Or you can transfer to the street cars or underground Metro and continue to the Ferry Building where you can browse the Farmers Market or take the ferry to Sausalito. 

The same bus takes you in the other direction to Golden Gate Park in about 5 minutes or Ocean Beach in about 20.

Take the 5 or 5R to within two blocks of the Ferry Building. At the Ferry Building street cars can take you all along the water front to Pier 39, Fisherman's Wharf and Ghirardelli Square and to the Baseball park and Dog Patch.
