Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

Hotel Riu Plaza Fisherman's Wharf

10/10 Excellent
"Very good property choice and value for Fishermans Warf. Excellent location, near everything, very nice property & updated room (they were kind enough to honor my request for a balcony). People on staff to help for a midnight check in. The breakfast buffet was excellent. It definately was the best choice and value. Bathroom was small but nice."
