Great option in the area

Compared to pricier options in the area, it offers a clean, comfortable room. The bathroom is old, but clean. The area is simply a stopover for getting into the city or the airport, but I'd recommend it over more expensive places if you aren't expecting luxury. Check-in worker was friendly and helpful.

Pros: Hotel was clean with easy access parking. Room was clean and spacious, bed was comfortable, and staff was helpful. Room had mini-fridge and microwave. Fast food and convenient stores near hotel on the main road in front of the hotel. Lots of places to eat and shop on the street two blocks behind the hotel. Only about a 30 minute walk to BART. Maybe a 10 minute Uber ride to the airport. Cons: Like all hotels near an airport you get the airplane noise. But didn’t seem bad enough to keep me up at night. Someplace near the hotel has Friday evening music that is loud but it seemed to end by 10 or 11 pm I think. Overall good experience and would stay here again.

Sparkling clean room - with almost all needed conveniences. Good shower too. Could use a little more power charger support with USB or USBC ports. But otherwise, the room was excellently outfitted and very very clean.
