5. The hotel is only a few blocks from the Ferry Building (near the Bay Bridge), 2 blocks away from Chinatown, and a few blocks north of the nicer part of Market Street (with plenty of nice shops)The downside of the hotel are twofold, one is temporary, the cable car was not working while we were there, it was highlighted on their website that it runs right outside the hotel, and no one from the hotel notified us until we had asked about it.
