Timani, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Rooms are dusty and clearly dated. Bathrooms unclean. Staff is great, very amicable and accommodating.
Alejandro, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Some of the surrounding areas can be pretty busy and cause travel times to take much longer than expected. Especially Downtown San Francisco. Having a much quieter, modern, comfortable, and more laid back place to get back to and relax definitely helps. It’s centrally located to multiple popular areas, including the SF airport, Palo Alto/Stanford University, Half Moon Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, etc. I would definitely stay here again if I have a need or desire to return to the region.
Seth, 8-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful place right on the he water. Parking is a bit pricey but a very nice facility.
