Anyone who relies on their book culture addiction should consider this splendid hideaway in very central San Francisco. We were easy walk or public transit from everything we wanted to get to: the Giants ballpark, Yerba Buena (which hosted live free public events and has a terrific cultural arts complex) and its delectable "Lemonade" food and drinkers, local bookstores, eateries. Cindy, the host, was impeccable. Plus, room was an artist's delight.
