We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Zoe for a quick stop-over in San Francisco. The location was great for what we wanted to do while in town. The cable car stop was around the corner and it was a fun way to see parts of the city. The Wharf was also a block away, making it a quick walk to see the ferries, Alcatraz and shops. The staff was exceptional and made us immediately welcomed. We felt very safe leaving our car in the secured garage that was only accessible by employees. We ate dinner at Pescatore and we enjoyed it very much. We would definitely come back if we ever found ourselves in San Francisco again.
