Great price for what we needed. Vacation to San Fran, so we were up in the morning and out until late evening. Clean rooms, the staff was very helpful when needed, and breakfast was ok for us. The breakfast is just simple stuff--the usual coffee, danish, toast, and cereal. Small eating area with only two tables, but ok for us.... More

This little hotel really does have comfortable rooms, so much so that it is hard to wake up in the morning....the beds must have magnets :) The hotel is well kept and clean, with all non-smoking rooms (there are several ash trays in convenient locations) which adds freshness to the rooms :) They have excellent Wifi and Satellite selection if...

We'd read some less than positive reviews, but decided to try it as the location and price were very good. We were pleasantly surprised -- front desk friendly & helpful, room clean & comfortable. For the price we thought it was a very good value. Would stay there again. Good location -- plenty of restaurants on Laurel Street which was... More

The hotel was nice and our room was clean, neat and tidy. The hotel staff was also very friendly. Free wifi (very fast!), plenty of parking space and free breakfast included. The breakfast is simple but nice. If you want to go to SF (without driving into The City), you can take the CalTrain or drive to Daly City Bart... More

I booked a last minute room on Expedia and for the price $69 plus tax, it was excellent.The manager would not offer this same price if I decided to stay a second night, and he did not quote me any offer at all, which I thought was odd, as the room was available and even it was not available at...

Because of an unfortunate mishap at home, I needed a place to stay ASAP and this was one of the few places that had vacancies; not sure what was going on in the area (other than summer vacation?)! It is very much more a motel than a hotel, and the rooms are on the small side, but it was very... More

We stayed at this renovated motel in San Carlos becuase it was close to where we were travelling to. It was clean, quiet and comfortable and only $84/night( a bargain ). It is about 15 minutes to the airport and about 30 into the city. It has a refrigerator and micro in the room, free wireless wifi and a decent... More
