Hyatt Place San Francisco Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff"

Half Moon Bay Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The "Fairview Room" was clean and spacious. All staff were friendly, accommodating and gracious. Many staff members were exceptionally helpful ... going out of their way to accommodate our need for "extra help" (breakfast room staff and front desk staff). Appreciated! Suggestion ... as more people are vegetarian, perhaps the breakfast menu could include Plant-based sausage and perhaps a vegetable dish ... just an idea. Thanks for a great stay (again)! See you next year!"
