(One I saw had a dresser less than a foot from the bed.) Of course, at $80 a night there s no room for complaining. But do ask for a larger room.

Note: The view of the Golden Gate on their brochure is not actually visible from the hotel.

Farther east still is the World Trade Center, standing lax arrivals adjacent to the old Ferry Building, the city s pre-bridge lax arrivals transportation hub. Ferries to Sausalito and Larkspur still leave from this point.
