Good place to stay

Every thing was fine and nice place to stay. Only complaint was service in the sports bar. I went in there 3 times and it took excessive long times to get waited on to start and then continued attention was poor.

beautiful, all u could want

the hotel was wonderful, the lady who checked us in at 11pm was happy and very friendly, answered all our questions and was happy to help in anyway she could. the room was clean and very cofortable , I was not impressed with the coffee in the bathroom but that was not a big deal. The morning staff were not as friendly, but efficient. My sister who was with me is a hotel manager in sonoma, was very impressed.

Great location

Crowne Plaza hotel in Foster city, CA. was good for my wife and I since it was 7 miles from Redwood Shores where our daughter and grandchildren lived. The room was very clean, the towels, my weakness, were new and fluffy, the bathroom was beautiful. Beds were very comfortable and the staff were very helful and friendly. I needed some pain medication at 2:00 am and it was a mile away-to 24 hr. Safeway. Easy access to the freeway and the shopping mall. Ample parking and an attractive lobby. There was also a Japanese restaurant but never had the chance to eat there as we were always out. Will attempt to eat there in our next stay.

Nice Rooms

Located south of the airport but a good deal for a less expensive trip to SF area. The bed was nicely done and the hotel was convenient.

Very nice Crowne-Plaza

No outside windows open, because the hotel is right on the freeway, and the hotel is built around an atrium - very nice rooms. Only problem was that it was a bit noisy Saturday night, although we slept just fine. Nice restaurant - good quality breakfast buffet. Good location - next to other restaurants and Home Depot, shoppping centers, etc. Freeway makes it easy to get to San Mateo center.

Great place at a very affordable price

Nothing went wrong at all. Everything went as expected, great room, for no reason they upgraded me to their new business tower which includes a desk with a PC computer in each room, great facilities in general. It is worth the drive from downtown
