No hotel could compare. Sitting on the rooftop porch overlooking the bay was priceless. Cow Hollow is great! Lots of shops and restaurants. Standouts are Mel’s for breakfast and we had an amazing dinner at Perry’s. Lots of locals. You can walk to fisherman’s wharf which we did there and back. Although it left us soooo exhasted and the walking time took away from other things we could have done or seen. I recommend Lyft or Uber!!! Alison’s home is lovely!
