RSA Hotel (el Cheapo...)

I know you guys are all pumped up on Shmoocon right now however with
RSA/Metricon right around the corner I thought I'd share my recent
booking experience. 

 

Once again this year I was able to "beat" the RSA conference pricing on
hotels for RSA using Hotels.com (see receipt below.) This year I'm
staying at the Hotel Fusion which is a 2.5 star hotel (free high speed
internet.) If you are like me and rather spend your per diem on steak,
sushi and lobster this is a good bet, else I might suggest staying at
the Prescott Hotel - a Kimpton Hotel for $178 a night. I did last year
and it was very nice.  

 

Here is the location of the Hotel Fusion in proximity to the Moscone:

UTF8&hq=&hnear=140+Ellis+St,+San+Francisco,+California+94102&z=17> 

 

Just as an FYI, I had a snafu with hotels.com where I had to call the
hotel directly to verify my reservation. While I had the guy on the
phone I asked him if I could directly people in "my group" directly to
him and he said he'd gladly take reservations directly. His name was Al
and his number is 1-415-568-2525 you can also book on their website at 
www.hotelfusionsf.com <http://www.hotelfusionsf.com>  (Same pricing as
hotels.com)

 

And lastly, here is a fabulous "bar style" (not too fancy) sushi
restaurant

Sakana - 605 Post St. (415) 775-7644
