Sara Frances Hometel in downtown San Diego maintains 168 single-room-occupancy units at 943 Tenth Avenue, listed on the San Diego Housing Commission's official SRO inventory as a non-exempt residential hotel under California's SRO preservation statutes. The property's unit count places it among the larger SRO buildings in the downtown core, comparable in scale to the 2,500-plus-room budget corridor along Park Boulevard that includes Motel 6 San Diego, CA - Downtown on nearby B Street. Units include a microwave and refrigerator, with some rooms offering a private half-bath while others share communal facilities on each floor. The building sits on the upper stretch of Tenth Avenue between the East Village trolley stations and the Balboa Park hillside, a corridor where SRO housing stock intersects with the convention-district economy that also supports nightly-rate properties like Hotel Churchill on the opposite side of Broadway. Sara Frances serves the segment of San Diego's housing continuum where SRO preservation law, monthly rental rates, and proximity to downtown social services converge for residents who need permanent housing without conventional lease requirements.
