Cleaning of the room every other day. I tip those hard working women well and I wouldn't expect them to get paid every other day !!!!!

Pros:

Excelente estadia, com quarto confortável e estacionamento gratuito

Tivemos uma excelente estadia no Hotel Aura SFO. O quarto era muito bom, confortável e espaçoso, e, no geral, ficámos muito satisfeitos com as condições do hotel. A limpeza também foi boa e contribuiu para uma estadia bastante agradável.

Outro ponto muito positivo foi o estacionamento gratuito. Durante toda a nossa estadia encontrámos sempre lugares disponíveis, o que foi uma grande vantagem, especialmente para quem viaja de carro.

De resto, foi uma experiência muito positiva. O conforto do quarto, a limpeza e o estacionamento gratuito e sempre disponível fazem deste hotel uma boa opção para quem visita a zona de San Francisco e viaja de carro.

Cons:

O único ponto claramente negativo foi o pequeno-almoço, que considerámos bastante fraco, com muito poucas opções e pouca variedade, ficando aquém da qualidade geral da estadia.

Nice hotel, but breakfast awful. Would not book again.
Pros:

Property was very clean, ideal location for the airport 10-15 minutes away. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Breakfast was not good. No choice at all. Not even worth saying that breakfast was included. Also the breakfast area is located outside guests rooms.
