Very convenient for an overnight stay close to the airport. Shuttle service was efficient both ways, good communication, would stay here again. Only complaint was the area the hotel was in didn't seem amazing, but to be fair I didn't get out and explore much.

Liked: Cleanliness
Property is characterized by unrealized potential. Rooms are large and lovely, but room 206 had very low water pressure and lukewarm hot water, empty soap dispensers in the shower, and the heater made strange clicking noises when the fan was set to low. Cable TV could not receive CNN, and only one shuttle per hour does not necessarily make for a convenient connection to flight schedules. Marginal value at $200 per night..

The receptionist welcomed me in at late arrival time, and there is free indoor parking. I enjoyed that the room was clean, and the heater was easy to set up. Location is very convenient if you are going to SFO.
