Staff was all very nice. Room was ok, appropriate for the price point. Location is great, close to the airport. My only complaint is a minimum $15/day parking charge that you don’t learn about until you walk in the lobby to check-in for your non-refundable booking.

It was an excellent value for the price! The room was quaint and a bit dated but it was well maintained and also in keeping with the villa style exterior. To my surprise, the buffet breakfast was amazing!!! The eggs were prepared several different ways, which I really enjoyed, the potatoes were excellent also. I would definitely recommend it for anyone needing an overnight stay when traveling. I don’t know about its proximity to San Francisco but there were plenty of places to eat and shop for groceries and necessities as well as, places to eat b
