2/5 Poor

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I want to emphasize that the staff was very friendly and polite. However the property itself was not great. I checked in at around midnight and when I walked into my room it was a mess. Obviously somebody had been staying there and it was never cleaned. The bed wasn’t made, trash on the floor etc. When I went back to the office, the front desk was apologetic and gave me a new room. When I walked into my second room, it was ‘clean’ but it wasn’t. The smell of cigarette smoke overwhelmed the room. The carpet looked so old and dirty and the plastic shower curtain and plastic on the floor were yellow and needed to be replaced. I personally would not stay here again due to cleanliness. Again, the staff was friendly and helpful though!

4/5 Good

Traveled with family
Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel in general is OK, the staff is very kind and professional. They include "breakfast" but because of COVID 19 Pandemic they only provide you a small take out bag per person. One day including some kind of egg (cold and awful) and other day with a packaged bread, one fruit and a bottle of water. They could improve these options for breakfast. The room where we stayed did not have a safe box, nor a microwave oven, which would be convenient. But the conditions are just as described in the hotel information page. The TV and TV control are somehow protected, so you can't use an HDMI cable to view content from your laptop or camera. They should allow these functions. One block away you have a small supermarket, cafeteria, pharmacy and a great place for bagels. Ocassionally you hear a train and planes passing by, but we didn't have any trouble sleeping. If you have business near SFO Airport its OK, if and if you're lucky you can see a beautiful and happy family of racoons around the parking lot.
