We had a great stay and the staff were very friendly. Breakfast was good with many choices. The downside was. Our bathroom sink ran brown water for a few minutes. The hot tub needed chlorine. I informed the front desk.

Great hotel with friendly staff

This hotel was clean and inviting. I booked this last minute but was happy I did. My family enjoyed our short stay and I look forward to booking this location again on my next early morning flight out of San Francisco.

The hotel facility itself was great , was clean and staff courteous. What wasn’t great was the transportation system. One of the reason we booked this hotel was the availability of a shuttle bus. However, we were informed after the booking that the transportation was only available during select times.. 3 hours after we arrived after a 20 hour flight. Waiting 3 hours was not acceptable. We ended up renting a vehicle just to go to the hotel any having to pay for parking. This added expense, frustration was not something we had bargained for. Had we know this before hand . We would not have chosen this. As there were other hotels at a similar price point that provided feeler transportation.
