"Whoever dreamed up this patient drop off loop should be publicly flogged."

"Great place to grab a cup a coffee or lunch and don't want to pay through the nose like most of the city. I visited it many times while staying across the street at the Intercontinental."

"If you like old mechanical devices this is a must see. A manual turn-table. Take one of the Powell/Hyde cars to see Lombard St and Alcatraz from Russian Hill."

"Security Checkpoint directly across from Marriott walkway ('B' I believe) is the worst..spent 45 minutes there. Take a few extra minutes and go to one of the others"

"Conflicting info. Has ties to Maltese Falcon. Not sure if it was one of the locations in the novel, movie or both. If you like older nostalgic hotels this is the place for you. Felt like a B&W movie."

"Popular place at night for the homeless but they usually don't bother anyone"
