"Choose a king room, as the mattresses are softer. Also definitely skip paying for breakfast in advance unless you like a basic breakfast and waiting a long time for it. I do prefer staying here over other hotels, however."

"Conveniently located within a few blocks of Pier 39, Presidio, the Bay Trail, and the Golden Gate Bridge. Public Transportation is available within two blocks for a trip across the bridge. Parking is limited and tight. Be prepared for tight turns and smaller vehicles. Not ideal for trucks or larger SUV’s."
