Mira Loma Trip

Overall, I found this hotel to be good, clean, and in a convenient location. However, like many areas in San Francisco, there were quite a few homeless people around the neighborhood. The breakfast was good overall, but the cut-up fruit was definitely not fresh. The hotel seemed to accommodate a large number of guests, and the breakfast area was too small for the number of people, making it quite crowded. Another downside was the outdoor seating area downstairs, where the hotel had sofas and a fire pit. It was a really nice and cozy setup, but unfortunately, our room overlooked this area. Guests stayed there talking until late at night, and the noise made it difficult for us to sleep. Overall, it was a good hotel, but there are a few things that could be improved, especially the breakfast area and noise levels at night.

Disappointing Experience – Definitely Not Worth the Price Unfortunately, our stay at the Fairmont San Francisco was extremely disappointing, especially considering the price we paid. We spent over $4,000 for just three nights, including all the additional fees, and the overall experience fell far short of what I would expect from a luxury five-star hotel. For starters, valet parking was over $100 per night, which is excessive even by San Francisco standards. Something as simple as complimentary bottled water wasn't even provided in the room. At these prices, you would expect these basic amenities to be included. We specifically booked a room expecting a view of the Golden Gate Bridge, only to discover that we could barely see a small portion of it. To make matters worse, the windows were filthy and clearly hadn't been cleaned properly. When you're paying a premium for a room with a view, the least you should expect is clean windows and the view you were promised. The dining experience was equally disappointing. The restaurant menu felt tired, outdated, and significantly overpriced for what was offered. Room service breakfast for two cost us $190, which is simply outrageous considering the overall experience. I understand that the Fairmont is a historic property with a prestigious reputation, and I certainly don't mind paying premium prices for a truly exceptional experience. However, charging five-star prices should come with five-star service and amenities.

Nice place but the fact I had to pay for parking at a place I am staying at $84 a night was not expected.
