I always choose this hotel when I'm in Foster City

Check in was a bit weird because the 3rd party booking app I used didn't send over my adjusted reservation but they were so nice and did what they could to accommodate me and make sure I got the room type I wanted. This hotel is always friendly and clean and despite being right on the freeway it feels pretty quiet to me. I feel safe there also and it's really close to the friends I visit when I'm in town.
