The SFO (airport) Marriott would be out of the question as it is on the other side of the city from the wine country area.
Agree 100% with your take on the downtown Marriott. I've stayed there off and on myself since it first opened in '89.
I have an event coming up at Moscone right after the first of the year, and was just tentatively booked at the CY. Just curious if you....or anyone else...can tell me how the CY is for BART/Public transport, as well as for proximity to Moscone.
Thanks in advance
