    Pleasant stay at a fairly clean hotel in a renovated building near Santa Clara & San Francisco, Hillsdale mall, freeways, pub, and restaurants. Wonderful property with a convenient and perfect location close to SFO airport. Clean pool area. Everything is good! Great spot to visit Andes Cafe nearby for tea or coffee.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the room with a functional working desk. The staff was pleasant and super-friendly people. The location was favorable for traveling around San Mateo, close enough to San Mateo, California 94403 and a shopping mall.

    Booked a king room with breakfast. The venue was set in the central position so close to sfo airport and Hillsdale mall or the freeways and downtown and restaurants. Also, such main attraction as Hillsdale Shopping Center was 1 mile from this hotel😃😃

    We are on a budget...so on comparison to close by hotels he price was right. And although some might think the rooms a tad small, we were only there to basically sleep. Overall, staff was friendly, room was nice & bedding was clean! I would stay here again & recommend it to a friend.

    Coffee in room was icky, but they provide a continental breakfast that is okay.

    The hotel offered a reasonably priced stay, which was great for our budget. We had a fantastic room equipped with a heating system, cable channels, and an iron, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Additionally, the location was convenient with an easy walk to Daiki Sushi, where we could grab a delicious lunch.
