Pros:

Nah am Flughafen, kostenlose Parkplätze

Cons:

Frühstück sehr übersichtlich, Straßenlärm, sehr altes und modrig riechendes Haus. Schlechte Fenster, dadurch viel Lärm. Für eine Nacht direkt nach Ankunft okay.

Only stayed for one night
Pros:

Free parking and good location, bed was comfortable and despite being next to the main road most of the noise was blocked out.

Cons:

Breakfast, not really worth the effort. No toast but they have 2 toasters. No eggs. No bacon or ham. Only seen cereal, waffles, banana and apples. yoghurts milk tea coffee and apple juice. I wonder if it’s worth the hassle providing breakfast at all, or would they lose a star if they dropped it. My guess is yes probably.

Stay here!
Pros:

Absolutely perfect stay for us. We used this location for an even in Oakland and it was just what we needed. Room was large and clean. We felt so fancy and well-cared for in our room for the price we paid. Staff was kind and helped us out a few times when we needed direction and travel suggestions. It's all in a very good location, with plenty of places to eat, BART close by, and bus stop literally right out front. Close enough to San Francisco to travel wherever but far enough away to not have to deal with all the people. Not to mention on-site parking that made us feel safer!

Cons:

The only suggestion I have is to plan ahead for breakfasts. We didn't necessarily need breakfast for this trip but we did notice there weren't many options. Some small cereal cups, dry oatmeal packs, and pre packaged baked goods were offered. But there's a wonderful iHOP right next door if you want more.

Quaint Boutique Style Hotel
Pros:

The hotel and room were extremely clean and well maintained. We were pleasantly surprised at how quaint the hotel was. We had the king suite and it was very large. The kitchen was an unexpected bonus for us with a full size refrigerator.

Cons:

Breakfast wasn't great. There weren't very many options and there was no sesting when we arrived. Only a handful of tables. We have stayed at hotels we pay less for and the breakfast was amazing with fresh bagels, toasts, waffles, etc.

Does not provide shuttle (misleading)
Pros:

My opinion of this property was based on the incorrect information on the posting. I asked the booking to be canceled due to false info, which was not allowed. I’d advise you against a property which does not own its mistakes

Cons:

This property does not offer shuttle from airport to the property as indicated in the property info. You will spend $70 round trip from/to the airport. Consider this before making a decision to book.
