Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf
The location is amazing, breakfast was good but boring. Our room was in front of the bus terminal we had so much noise and car lights and buses beeping the whole night. Hotel staff were not cooperative regarding the matter.

YOTEL San Francisco
Room was tiny. Nice to have a towel warmer, but accessible from shower so towel got cold before it could be used.
