Advantages: Centrally located, good facilities

Disadvantages: Slightly pricey, but you pay for the location .

Well, this hotel was my introduction to California. I went on a fly drive in July with family and here was where we stayed on touchdown. I hadn't realised the airport was so far away from San Francisco itself, it was in San Bruno, further south.

When we first got out and about the next morning, I realised we had made an excellent choice in this hotel because if you go to a walking city like San Francisco, you really want to be close to the main attractions, and this hotel is slap bang in the thick of it. It's near enough to walk to Fishermen's Wharf and Pier 39. There was plenty of parking for the guests with cars - we picked ours up the day before travelling down the coast.

And all the other things you come to expect of a good hotel were there: wifi (no good for me, I don't have a laptop); cable tv with HBO channel in the rooms and a small fridge and microwave. I stayed in a room with two big double beds (what the American's call Queen beds).

The staff couldn't have been more helpful and were all so immaculately dressed that I felt abit out of place in my casual holidaywear! The only downside is that the breakfast that is included in the price is only what the Americans call a continental, which means Danish pastries and filter coffee. Not really substantial enough to set you up for the day and abit too sweet that early in the morning, but never mind.

All in all, a wonderful start to my holiday.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Summary: If you can afford a nice hotel slap bang in the middle of things then stay here.
