The receptionist welcomed me in at late arrival time, and there is free indoor parking. I enjoyed that the room was clean, and the heater was easy to set up. Location is very convenient if you are going to SFO.

Pros: Quick ride to SFO on their free shuttle. The room was spacious , well lit and had ample electrical outlets. Free continental breakfast. Cons: road noise around the clock. The walks are paper thin. Unfortunately the room overhead had children running back and forth for hours. And if someone flushed a toilet upstairs or ran water, it sounded like Niagara Falls was running through the walls.

This is a clean, comfortable airport hotel. Big bonus is the ice cream shop across the street. Because the shuttle comes only once an hour, it was not useful to us arriving at SFO. We chose not to use it leaving and took a Lyft instead.

Breakfast has no egg or meat. I saw guests just grabbing coffee, there was nothing to eat. If breakfast is part of your decision making process, then this place is absolutely not a good choice!

Nice place. Our flight was cancelled so we needed a convenient place. We searched on airport shuttle service and included breakfast. This had both, only to find out the shuttle doesn’t run late at night. $24 cab ride took care of that and the shuttle got us to the airport the next day. A few good restaurants nearby.

We like the parking garage is right next to the hotel. However the insulation for the room is very poor and we woke up by the loud walking noise from upstairs 1am, 3am. we can even hear their conversation !! We had a lousy sleep.
