Just got back from a lovely holiday in SanFrancisco where we stayed at the York Hotel at 940 Sutter Street, just 4 blocks from the central Union Square area and only 2 blocks from the major transport stops at Powell Street.
History:
Built in the 1920s, the hotel still has many of its original features, including Bakerlite electrical fittings and ceramic solid baths. It also has a history. If you're a Hitchcock film fan you'll love the fact that Vertigo was filmed here and you will spot the square white hotel staircase used in the film as James Stewart suffers an attack of Vertigo. Also perseved are two of the rooms associated with the film (rooms 301 and 501, also referred to as the Vertigo Room and the Kim Novak room respectively) both of which can be rented for an additional cost and contain posters and photos taken from ...
Advantages: Cheap, clean and location, location, location! Disadvantages: old-fashioned, elevator from hell
In 2007-2008 I lived in SanFrancisco for work for 4.5 months. The first two week I spent in the Dakota Hotel, in search for a spot of my own.
Dakota hotel caught my eye for a number of reasons: the price and the location. Normally, you'd have to rob a bank or two to stay in a hotel in the heart of SanFrancisco for two weeks. Luckily, Dakota offered an attractive rate for long-term stays. I thought it would certainly be worth a look, given it's excellent location.
Location
You see, location is undoubtedly one of Dakto Hotels strongest points. This hotel is situated on 606 Post Street, approximately 2 blocks from Union Square. In the street itself, there are a number of restaurants and a small supermarket.
The hotel is on the edge of what are considered to be the good neighbourhoods in SanFrancisco. Two blocks down, you ...

Album Notes
American Music Club: Bruce Kaphan (vocals, guitar, pedal steel, keyboards, tablas); Danny Pearson (vocals, guitar, mandolin, bass); Tim Mooney (vocals, guitar, drums); Mark Eitzel, Vudi (vocals, guitar). Additional personnel: Bill Ortiz (trumpet); Omewenne (background vocals). Producers: Joe Chiccarelli, American Music Club. Recorded at Studio D, Sausalito, California; Mobius Music and Hyde St. Studios, San Francisco, California. SAN FRANCISCO was AMC's final album, as leader Mark Eitzel quit the band before it ever received the inevitable boot from Reprise for disappointing sales. Produced by Joe Chiccarelli, who mixed the beauteous EVERCLEAR, it combines that album's lushness with the sophisticated, overdub-heavy arrangements of MERCURY. Characteristically, the band opens with a ballad, "Fearless," a touching, straight-ahead love song (!) that ranks among AMC's finest works. "Can You Help Me" and "I Broke My Promise" incorporate the band's burgeoning interest in R&B in the service of Eitzel's typically self-effacing lyrics. A low-key rhythmic throb that's nearly danceable (not to say funky) runs through the otherwise downhearted "The Revolving Door" and the absurdist poetics of "How Many Six Packs Does it Take to Screw in a Light." The rocking "Hello Amsterdam," a humorous account of the group's failure to impress the Dutch, is as close as AMC comes to accessibility. The harrowing acoustic ballad "The Thorn in My Side Is Gone" bears the naked emotional honesty of John Lennon's finest solo work, while the hazy, surrealistic "In the Shadow of the Valley" and "What Holds the World Together" find the band at its most impressionistic, foreshadowing Eitzel's subsequent solo career.
Album Reviews
NME (12/24/94, p.23) - Ranked #43 in NME's list of the `Top 50 Albums Of 1994.' Rolling Stone (12/1/94, p.122) - 3.5 Stars - "...a more seamless sound....The songs now flow naturally on dark and weighty pop lines....pretty music for emotional down-and-outs who still harbor a penny's worth of hope..." Spin (11/94, p.93) - Highly Recommended - "...Song by song, as patiently as a surgeon, Mark Eitzel autopsies his heart. It's a timepiece ticking away the hours of a doomed relationship..." Musician (11/94, pp.88-90) - "...Eitzel might as well have been the poster boy for Prozac...Here he is, the most noninvited party guest of the '90s, doing the hustle with the prom queen on her parent's living room rug....Could this be the next great American rock band..." Q (10/94, p.105) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...all beautiful songs, tingling melodies, and ironic, self-loathing sentiment..." Melody Maker (9/10/94, p.37) - Highly Recommended - "...a lacerating mesh of self-pity and self-parody all across SAN FRANCISCO...The twisted joy is that there is no romance like jaded romance..." Entertainment Weekly (10/21/94, p.67) - "...melancholic bile mixed with country whine conjures up Hank Williams channeled through Leonard Cohen..." - Rating: B+ Alternative Press (1/95, p.54) - "...[American Music Club] specializes in an eloquent, elegant sulkiness which loses neither edge nor grace for all its subdued bad vibes....File under Mood Music for Bad Moods..."
