The room and the lobby had a really weird smell, kind of like sausage and dog. But other than that the rooms were pretty nice.

It was a comfortable bed & breakfast deal. But the breakfast area was very small and the room looked a bit oldish. The TV didn't work but as I was out most of the day I did not really cared. he cost-benefit ratio was not that good.

Great Stay
Overnight stay as I was in town for a concert. Front desk woman was wonderful & friendly. She even asked me and my friends how the concert was when we saw her during breakfast the next morning. Hotel was extremely clean and comfortable beds & the bathroom Dove products was a nice touch. Only slight negative is not many parking spaces and they’re very tight so if you have a large vehicle, you might have trouble getting in and out. But overall, very satisfied would definitely stay here again!

This is a smaller, quaint Holiday Inn Express with the same amenities as others including free breakfast, a smaller 24 hr gym, and there is access to a garden patio w gazebo during the day next to the ground parking lot. We booked 2 rooms w 2 queen beds, comfortable and clean rooms, and they accommodated us with a free crib. The rooms have the older ac wall unit, so it was a bit stuffy and hot at first but eventually cooled down. The bathroom was clean with Dove body/shampoo products. Overall, a nice, quick stay in the South Bay for 2 families with small children. The only complaint is there was a bit of a strong chemical smell in the lobby, maybe the brand of cleaning product they use, but otherwise no other issues.

The elevator for a 2 floor property was very slow...it took anywhere from 60s to 120s to show up in each floor and would take full 15s to close :-)

I liked the fact that it is located relatively close to downtown (Castro Street. I disliked the fact that the room safe was broken and the hotel could not find a maintenance person to fix it. I had to move into another room in a rush before I had to go out and mit somebody that morning such that the room could be made ready for another client.
