Brisbane is a small town on the outskirts of San Francisco. It is wedged between the airport and the actual city. It was a quiet area with lots of nearby restaurants. Melissa's Restaurant was a great Mexican restaurant. The pizza place and corner convenience store were a life saver. There is also a nearby shop called Christy's Donut and Icecream shop that satisfied cravings from icecream, iced coffee, delicious ham bagels, and well, donuts. Brisbane is near what looked to be the industrial side oft own but it you're looking for a nice, quiet accommodation it is just right.
