We spend 4 nights here and it was really nice. The hotel is family oriented; they have events for family every night. House keeping will stop and clean your room everyday. If you like to stay cheap and can manage to walk in a mile, you can hit pier 39 with so many attractions, also Ghirardelli square is right in the corner. Restaurants and fast food is like 5 mins walk, Walgreens is close as well. the Cons is, there is no microwave and refrigerator in the room, so you'll have to notify the front desk and rent a refrigerator and use their common room to heat up your food, you also have to pay for parking but we didn't have to use car, like what I said almost all the attractions is walkable. We use the Red BigBus Hop-On-Hop-Off and lyft to get us to the Bridge and California academy of science. And for the floridians like us, Please Bring your winter coat. lol
