Spent one night at this hotel with family as a break between flights from Hawaii to UK. The shuttle bus (not pre booked) was to time and picked us up with no problems from SFO. Location of hotel is right in front of the bay opposite the runways so great if you are a bit of a plane geek (like me and my daughter) - make sure you book a rear room overlooking the bay! Not many eateries around so we ordered in dominos to deliver as it was 10 pm when we arrived and they let us eat in the...

The decor was a bit shabby, but I believe the hotel is being done up. The breakfast was simple, but decent. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The free shuttle worked a treat, saving us $25+ each way. The area itself is also very nice, with enough to do if you need to waste a few hours. Also decent food available from a variety of...
