If you are visiting San Francisco for the first time and clueless on where to stay - this is the perfect place at FIsherman's Wharf. This hotel offers golden gate view rooms and Alcatraz Island view rooms among others. It also offers a $15 credit at the restaurant each time you dine and thats a good deal considering the food is outstanding at the property. The service is immaculate to say the least, starting from the warm welcome at the front desk to the concierge persons and the housekeeping staff everyone was very kind and polite. TLDR: Book this place for a wonderful san francisco trip!

The room is clean, but room 285 the middle cushin in the couch needs repair. The sheets were changed, but one of the days it had tears in it. One of the pillow sheets were yellowed. The guys working the door talk to each other more then help with luggage and open doors. The rooms are large The front desk was quick The location is nice The price is medium
