During your San Francisco vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Cable Cars
Although they may not be San Francisco's most practical means of transportation, cable cars are certainly the best loved and are a must-experience when visiting the city. Designated official historic landmarks by the National Park Service in 1964, they clank up and down the city's steep hills like mobile museum pieces, tirelessly hauling thousands of tourists each day to nowhere in particular.London-born engineer Andrew Hallidie invented San Francisco's cable cars in 1869. He got the idea by serendipity. As the story goes, Hallidie was watching a team of overworked horses haul a heavily laden carriage up a steep San Francisco slope. As he watched, one horse slipped and the car rolled back, dragging the other tired beasts with it. At that moment, Hallidie resolved that he would invent a mechanical contraption to replace such horses, and just 4 years later, in 1873, the first cable car made its maiden run from the top of Clay Street. Promptly ridiculed as "Hallidie's Folly," the cars were slow to gain acceptance. One early onlooker voiced the general opinion by exclaiming, "I don't believe it -- the damned thing works!"Even today, many visitors have difficulty believing that these vehicles, which have no engines, actually work. The cars, each weighing about 6 tons, run along a steel cable, enclosed under the street in a center rail. You can't see the cable unless you peer straight down into the crack, but you'll hear its characteristic clickity-clanking sound whenever you're nearby. The cars move when the gripper (not the driver) pulls back a lever that closes a pincerlike "grip" on the cable. The speed of the car, therefore, is determined by the speed of the cable, which is a constant 9 1/2 mph -- never more, never less.The two types of cable cars in use hold a maximum of 90 and 100 passengers, and the limits are rigidly enforced. The best views are from the outer running boards, where you have to hold on tightly when taking curves.Hallidie's cable cars have been imitated and used throughout the world, but all have been replaced by more efficient means of transportation. San Francisco planned to do so, too, but the proposal met with so much opposition that the cable cars' perpetuation was actually written into the city charter in 1955. The mandate cannot be revoked without the approval of a majority of the city's voters -- a distant and doubtful prospect.San Francisco's three existing cable car lines form the world's only surviving system of cable cars, which you can experience for yourself should you choose to wait in the endless boarding line (up to a 2-hr. wait in summer).

Golden Gate Bridge
The year 2005 marks the 68th birthday of possibly the most beautiful, and certainly the most photographed, bridge in the world. Often half-veiled by the city's trademark rolling fog, San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge spans tidal currents, ocean waves, and battering winds to connect the City by the Bay with the Redwood Empire to the north.With its gracefully swung single span, spidery bracing cables, and zooming twin towers, the bridge looks more like a work of abstract art than one of the 20th century's greatest practical engineering feats. Construction was completed in May 1937 at the then-colossal cost of $35 million.The 1 1/4-mile-long steel link (longer if you factor in the approach), which reaches a height of 746 feet above the water, is an awesome bridge to cross. Traffic usually moves quickly, however, so crossing by car won't give you too much time to see the sights. If you drive from the city, park in the lot at the foot of the bridge on the city side and make the crossing by foot. Back in your car, continue to Marin's Vista Point, at the bridge's northern end. Look back, and you'll be rewarded with one of the greatest views of San Francisco.Millions of pedestrians walk or bike across the bridge each year, gazing up at the tall red towers, out at the vistas of San Francisco and Marin County, and down into the stacks of oceangoing liners. You can walk out onto the span from either end, but be prepared -- it's usually windy and cold, and the bridge vibrates. Still, walking even a short distance is one of the best ways to experience the immense scale of the structure.

Wells Fargo History Museum
Wells Fargo, one of California's largest banks, got its start in the Wild West. Its history museum, at the bank's head office, houses hundreds of genuine relics from the company's whip-and-six-shooter days, including pistols, photographs, early banking articles, posters, a stagecoach, and mining equipment.

Fisherman's Wharf is only a few blocks away Very easy to take buses to any place in San Francisco from this hotel.

Very affordable rooms which are recently remodeled. Free parking. Close to many San Francisco attractions.

Would recommend to anyone! Great for the cost!

Fisherman's wharf, Pier 39, short drive to Union Square district and the Golden Gate Bridge. Easy accessibility!

If you're looking for an inexpensive and nice hotel, this is what you're looking for. The rooms are VERY spacious! If you like spacious restrooms, you should request for a room on the ground floor because rooms on the other floors are moderate in size. The hotel is newly rennovated and is beautiful on the inside, so don't let the outside facade fool you. I was very satisfied with the comfortability and cleaniness. It's located right off of Van Ness, so you have easy access to all local attractions and highways. I would highly recommend this to someone who is looking for a NICE but INEXPENSIVE hotel.

Great location with Pking - Basic Comfort

A great Tha� restaurant closeby: Lemongrass, 2424 Van Ness avenue

The room has a sheet instead of a curtain (they were renovating they said) and we hadn't any side lamps (only one basic bulb in the middle if the room)but the location is great and they have a parking. Not a Hotel for a romantic week-end but very convenient.

Spacious

Garrett, San Francisco, CA, 2006-04-05

Prices at in-house restaurant fairly exorbitant. For dinner try Little Thai, a block away at Polk & Broadway. Excellent food!

I asked for handicapped accommodations. Room had capacious queen-size bed, and shower room was big enough to maneuver easily.

Good Deal

Anonymous, Minneapolis, MN, 2005-12-12

Fisherman's walk is about a 20 minute walk down the street.

The Broadway Manor Inn provides the basic necessities for a stay such as beds, a television and a clean bathroom. It's definitely not high class but it has a microwave and refrigerator and free wireless internet if you bring a laptop. It is within walking distance of Fisherman's Wharf and is in a safe part of San Francisco. Overall, you get what you pay for.

Hotel Skidrow

Christopher, Long Beach, CA, 2005-11-23

This area is central to alot of sites. However, there are other hotels in the area that I would check out instead of Broadway Manor Inn.

The Broadway Manor Inn was what I would imagine of a skidrow hotel. The first room I was given had stains on the lampshades, carpeting that looked older than me and an overpowering smell of bleach. I couldn't leave the window open because I was right over a busy street. I changed rooms and the second wasn't any better. Stains everywhere imagineable, no remote for the TV, splotches of mismatched paint on the walls. I had to go to the office regarding problems with the key to my door three times. The hotel's internet connection was so poor, my internet attempts were all interrupted. The hotel charges fifty cents for every call, I ended up paying almost $30 for calls because I would lose connection and then have to sign back on to the internet. This was a terrible visit to San Francisco because of the poor accomodations I had to endure.

"Good for people on the go"

Anonymous, 2005-11-19

There were a number of bars and shops within walking distance

Well the hotel was not too bad, until at around 7am i woke up to the sound of hammering. It seems then had decided to remodel the room right next to my that morning. There were many times i thought they were going to come right through the wall. To top it all off, i received a call around 9:30am to see when i would be checking out, because they wanted to remodel my room next. Needless to say i was not very happy after this happened. Other than that the room was ok, it had a good bed and clean towels, and it was within walking distance from a lot of things in San Francisco.
