Not quite as easy to walk to the little town nearby - hotels on So Airport Blvd are better situated - but this one does have free shuttle to the airport and breakfast and a little bit of fitness equipment, so liked that. Would definitely stay there again

Disappointed
I cannot even explain how disappointed I was unfortunately. I still haven't expressed my concern to the manager at the property. I would hope I can get some kind of refund from them when I calm down.
Now would, I feel be an appropriate time to express my concern as to why I haven't received my refund to a hotel In early September that I reported appropriately and in a timely manner. Not to mention I also had to submit documents from my Orthopedic Trauma Surgeon and Team. That's why I had spent money which was for this specific trip was cancelled for meds meaning

The hotel needs improvements
The furniture in the room was way worse than my previous stays. It was as if the room was from 90s. Also there were some hair in the bathroom on the towels.

Disappointing
I was surprised since the rating for this place was good…I didn’t find that so. Old dated property, ants in the bath area…pretty disappointing but I guess I should have looked at the star rating…two stars is where I’d put it.

I should noticed all the previous names this placed had, over ten different names. The room was so small we had to step into the tub to shut the bathroom door. There was only a phone stand to put your stuff on, no desk or dresser. The room was no bigger than 180sqft, never mentioned online. And the $14 parking lot charge, no spot was ever open because they sell them out for airport parking. Nice to hear they had a shuttle to the airport. Breakfast was reheated up frozen waffles and toast. I will most likely never stay here again, There a plenty of other hotels nearby.

no USB
It is ashamed that a room does not have a simple USB port. A multi-port charger in the room was out of order, and they’ve sad that this situation is in the most of the rooms.

South San Francisco
This hotel was in an industrial part of SF, lots of businesses and their trucks around. Our room was very small, no fridge or microwave and the bathroom was extremely cramped. We had ants on the window sill, but i didn't bother them and they didn't bother me. Our window looked out over the backyard seating area. The room was clean and comfortable for our two night stay, just very small.

Comfortable and good value
Great value hotel, convenient for SFO, though it's a shame the shuttle doesn't run during the afternoon!
Room was very comfortable with good facilities such as charging point for devices.
Breakfast was plentiful and tasty.
