Holiday Inn Golden Gateway by IHG

8/10 Good

"We stayed in a compact but pleasant corner room on the 23rd floor. The view was striking, revealing nearly all the landmarks of San Francisco. Although the hotel sits away from many attractions, it is near public transportation, and the neighborhood felt secure. It was disappointing that breakfast was not included; however, the parking rate was much lower than at many larger chains, and the area felt safe and protected."
