Hyatt Regency San Francisco
"Check in was weird since you need to go up 2 floors. For valet parking its $95 a day... which seems insane. So we parked a block over at a parking garage for $45 overnight. The hotel it self is nice and clean. But we made the mistake of getting a drink at the bar in the lobby. 2 drinks costs $50 ..."
