This is a very clean, comfortable, and well rounded hotel. The best things I like is they offer both free parking and shuttle service to SFO airport, which meet our family needs.

Close to SFO airport, the reason I booked this hotel. The breakfast remains me of cheaper Holiday Inn in the U.S. Do they use the same food venders?
