Hidden fee. Parking $15/night. It is not in city. Not that kind of area. Should be free. Other than that, nice place to stop by if u r in Bay area and want to be close to SF and SFO.

Comfortable stay near airport with good breakfast

Pros: Friendly and attentive staff. Ample parking. Clean comfortable room. Good breakfast. Cons: bathroom door rubbed against the floor when you opened it, so it made a loud sound. Window shades don’t block out all of the sunlight. Otherwise, great stay.

Perfect for a night.

It was fine overall. I did not read the fine print carefully regarding that parking is not free. I find it quite annoying that properties such as this do not include parking. Room was comfortable overall. I wish though that the window could be opened for fresh air. Using the fan or a when not needed is a waste, noisy, and does not really provide relief from a stuffy room. The weather was perfect for letting in the fresh air. The tub in room 541 drains incredibly slowly. I was in ankle deep water in moments. My wife was in California deep water trying to enjoy a longer shower.
