Great room for the price
The room was great and the staff was super supportive and friendly. I had to bring my 2 cats with me because we had to leave our apartments for a couple of days. The pet deposit was reasonable and we all had a relaxing few days there.
It's nothing fancy but the room was clean, the sheets were soft, the air conditioning was cold and I felt safe.

The staff is very friendly I asked could I do a late check out and they let me do one they're very nice I had no problem with the rooms are extremely big and for the area that it was located in I didn't expect to get the type of service that I got in that area but I did peace and quiet I would love to go back

Economical
Felt gritty. Child’s bicycle and toys were scattered edge of parking lot.
Room was non-smoking but smelled of either smoke or aggressive, bitter cleaning solution. Parking lot is difficult to get out of with street partially blocked by semi.
Economical but felt that way.

Contracted scabies. Fun.
Grateful I bought travel insurance to get at least part of the trip reimbursed for the misery of the stay.

Almost nearly close to 5 stars yes i also almost..
This place has been recently renovated...inside the 3 or so rooms i had the almost fully pleasurable experience of having. Location gets 2 stars and 5 stars right next to 880 which shouts convenience and the dull sounds of cars on a very busy area of Freeway is dull like white noise after a stay of a few days. Service gets 3 stars and 5 stars so everyone was kind and friendly and efficient and helpful but i had an unfortunate situation develop with a neighbourhood homeless man that didnt escalate as much as it could have thankfully but a lesson was learned on my behalf. Property seems in good shape and kept clean and a team of smiling seemingly happy people but strangely a fairly large swimming pool is the focus of the 3 story courtyard of the hotel and it was July late in the summers agreement 5o turn up the heat but the pool kooked great and inviting but for some reason it was closed the entire time we stayed. With san Francisco bay just a stones throw from this invitjng almost overlooked gem of q place to stay wasnt really a place to stay and relax and play. No water nased sports anyway. Hmmm. Ask before you plan and count on something that might remain closed for whatever reason.
