10/10 Excellent
"A fabulous place to stay. The desk clerk put us on the top floor, which gave us a great view of San Francisco and the water. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Parking is valet-only (80 bucks) unless you want to find your own parking, but it was worth it just to avoid the hassle of driving around in a strange city looking for parking."
