Daisy and her grad buddies when they came out for the AERA conference in San Francisco. Luckily, I happened to be working in San Francisco at the same time.
Hertz has this nice little service called the #1 Club Gold which lets you reserve a car ahead of time then find your name on the board and walk to the appropriate spot. The car's waiting with keys in it. Can you find my name on the board?
Hands down, the best hotel I've ever stayed. The blinds and lights are all controlled by the alarm clock next to the bed, which also happens to be the telephone.
A nice room, but for some reason, it always felt a bit creepy. The armoir on the right holds the TV, yet another awkward placement with the way the desk is positioned. I guess no one expects you to actually do work and watch tv in these rooms.
Another angle of the hotel. I guess sitting full length mirrors on the floor instead of hanging them on the wall is the swanky thing to do. I liked how the TV was placed, so I could lie in bed and watch without having to crane my neck so much.
Another angle of the Westin. The armoire hides a nice sized TV. The only problem is how the desk is placed so that it's a little tough to sit at the desk and work at a laptop while trying to keep and eye on the TV. The sacrifices I make.
This was in downtown San Francisco on Union Street, so finding things to do and places to eat was no problem. Probably one of my favorite hotels based on location.
One of the more swankier places I stayed. I spent so much time at this particular hotel that they started recognizing me when I went to the front desk or the concierge. The beds at Westins are fantastic.
