Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

8/10 Good
"Pros: Incredibly clean. Convenient location to Fisherman’s Wharf. Very safe. Great amenities and wonderful breakfast assortment. Cons: tiny bathrooms. Very loud location, could have used a sound machine at night to block out street (traffic) and hotel noise (doors closing)."
