Gorgeous property near Golden gate
Pros:

Everything! The location to Golden Gate and the presidio was so close! It’s a beautiful property right off the highway 101 on a beautiful body of water. They offer wine and cheese daily from 5-7pm and warm cookies at 7pm, free breakfast daily. The room was lovely and the hotel was beautiful!

Cons:

Even though it’s literally right on the highway, they’ve managed to soundproof it pretty well.
