I have just had clients return from a trip to Sanfran!!! Here’s abit about what they said - Thanks for organising, it was great. Really good rooms each had its advantages.
Stay Pineapple was classic good staff, nice rooms quite small so 2 nights was perfect 👌
Embassy is your typical airport hotel massive, good facilities and food. Big spacious rooms nice and quiet brilliant breakfast.
Hotel RIU Fisherman’s Wharf was perfect location one block from wharf 39, easy to get around. Great size rooms. Really good breakfast. Busy but probably be because it was their school holidays.
Food was good down at the Wharf lots of choices.

It was good to split it up at different places union square is so different now wouldn’t say brilliant place anymore a lot of homeless people.
Best to uber there if you need or stay up the hill but it would be pricey.

I ended up putting in a bid to upgrade to Premium Economy and we all got it. So much nicer and bigger seats. The food was amazing. Well worth the extra money.

Highly recommend sending people to the baseball it was fantastic atmosphere and venue.

Thanks again it all worked smoothly, you did an amazing job 🥰

The Services had a fabulous trip to Bali over the school holidays here is a wee snippet of their trip…They stayed at the Courtyard Bali Seminyak Resort

Hi Jaimee
We had a fabulous time!
The location was perfect, we could eat at the hotel or easily walk to a variety of restaurants/bars to suit our budget/taste.
The hotel was also perfect. It was more expensive to eat at the hotel, but we were very aware of that from past holidays. The rooms were very clean/tidy, and the 2 x rooms worked well for us and the kids.
The hotel staff were very helpful, and the breakfast buffet was amazing!
The transfers were also good. On time and no hassles. There was no Bali belly which was a bonus.

They did a few day trips - some included abit of travelling to get to and from…they include - Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida, Kelingking Beach and Broken Beach. They also experienced Elephant park and an ATV Tour.

They used the Gojeck app for scooters to get to restaurants/bars further away and also shopping which they found really helpful.

Thanks Maxine for your amazing review and pictures.
