Hotel was nice. I had not been there in many years - since it was the Sir Francis Drake. Room was nicely renovated - just sort of small. The hotel was jam packed - due to the holidays and a lot of crazy events going on in the city that day. Breakfast was sort of chaotic - but I think there was a large private event going on.
