We arrived early to the hotel, after flying into SFO from San Diego and taking the Bart train and using the Muni street cars to within one block of the hotel, and was fortunate that our room was ready. I had requested a room with a view and they accommodated us with a great room facing North Point St. room 408. The room was with a king bed, had a sofa bed and extra chairs. The windows opened which we loved because we much prefer fresh air verses air conditioner. The bed was very comfortable and had lots of pillows to choose from. They are blocks from Fisherman's Wharf, Safeway, Trader Joes and lots of restaraunts. We did not participate in the Manager's hour long happy hour as we do not like wine...beer would of been another story LOL
Now for the negative and boy was it a negative. Do NOT get this room, or any room on this side of the hotel, if you want to sleep! Every bus in town goes down North Point and every night around 10 pm or later the trash trucks come and pick up the trash. They push the trash bins out onto the street-super noisy. Every food, linens, any distributor arrives on the street and unloads and makes tons of noisy no matter what time it is. One night the linen washing truck came about 1:30 and woke us up...we had such huge bags under our eyes from not sleeping. They suggest an inside room or maybe (?) and outer room facing Mason Street??? The hotel is nice, the people are nice BUT it REALLY starts to wear on you when you cant get a good nights sleep.
