Needed a first floor room (noted on my reservation)-mobility impaired. Pool...paved over. Bathroom mold. Remote didn't work... It is the worst Choice Hotel I've ever stayed in and I travel alot for business and pleasure. Dirty...really dirty. I agree with Steve R....I'd rather sleep in my car.

The location was perfect for our busy trip. We only needed a place to park, sleep, shower and perhaps eat. Free lighted parking was great and close to the door in the pouring rain..Everything looked clean and well kept. However, when we went into our clean room, as my husband opened the closet door, it came off the track. Then... More

We take the Bart system into SF. The first time we stayed in 2008 we were on the first floor and the place actually won... More

This is one of the filthiest Choice Hotels I've stayed in, and I stay in this chain 5-10 days a month across the US. OK, there were no bed bugs, I always check. The bed was made although I'm not sure the sheets had been washed. They were old. The floor had not been vacuumed and you could see pieces... More

Not clean at all. Grossed me out. I feel very dirty being in the room. I wish I would have brought cleaning supplies with me.

I travel to the Bay Area a lot for work and was looking for a place I liked and would like to return to when I am in the area. The photos of this hotel looked nice. In reality it was among the filthiest hotel I have stayed in 15 years. And I have stayed in a lot of hotels.... More

This is a hotel for people on a budget. It is designed for extended stay. With that in mind it is a secure budget hotel, with a staff that tries to make your stay pleasant. The rooms are small but you have a stove, mico, refrig, work desk chairs, lounge chair and bed on in a small room. My room... More

I stayed here in Sept. '09 with a girlfriend on a leisure trip. Then it was just okay, but we were told renovations were underway. So when hubby and I planned a trip to visit family in Dec. we chose this since it was convenient and had the mini kitchens. We stayed 5 nights. The place is STILL undergoing reno,... More
