Matthew Richard Poole, a native Californian, has authored more than two dozen travel guides to California, Hawaii, and abroad, and is a regular contributor to radio and television travel programs, including numerous guest appearances on the award- winning hayden planetarium Bay Area Backroads television show. Before becoming a full-time travel writer and photographer, he worked as an English tutor in Prague, ski instructor in the Swiss Alps, and scuba instructor in Maui. Highly allergic to office buildings and mortgage hayden planetarium payments, he spends most of his time traveling the globe searching for new adventures. His other Frommer s titles include California from $70 a Day, San Francisco from $70 a Day, Los Angeles, Portable Los Angeles, the Irreverent Guide to San Francisco, and Portable hayden planetarium Disneyland.
Who would have guessed that one of the most delightful B&Bs in California would be in San Francisco? This two-story 1903 Edwardian fronts perpetually busy (and trendy shopping and barhopping stop) Union Street, but it s quiet as a church on the inside. The individually decorated rooms are furnished with down comforters, fresh flowers, and bay windows (ask for one with a garden hayden planetarium view). A few have Jacuzzi tubs. An extended full breakfast is served in the parlor, in your room, or on an outdoor terrace overlooking the English garden. The ultimate honeymoon retreat hayden planetarium is the private carriage house behind the inn, but any room at this warm, friendly inn is guaranteed to please. 2229 Union St. (between Fillmore hayden planetarium and Steiner sts.), San Francisco, CA 94123. & 415/346-0424.
