The rooms were clean, but there were not enough electrical outlets, and the ones in the room were overloaded or without a cover. The towels were small and very, very thin. The rooms are not very sound-proof, and the doors closing in the hallway make a thunderous noise. For the money, it was ok. I would only recommend it to... More

Worst Motel EVER! We got to San Mateo late (9 pm) and had trouble finding lodging for Saturday night, but managed to get a last minute room at Super 8. Very dirty room with leftovers still in the fridge, noisy highway location, dodgy place with drunk people coming and going and yelling from 4 to 7 am (quite scary actually),... More

A very bad example of a super 8 motel! ...and I wonder who wrote the good reviews? the manager himself? About 50% of the rooms were former smoking rooms...and they smell terribly! There is even a sign in the room that "the room has been cleaned to remove tobacco odor", which was obviously not efficient at all. After a long... More

I stayed at the Super 8 San Mateo where all the rooms are smoke free. The rooms have been renovated with new furniture. I like that they have 4 pillows per bed. They have a great breakfast. The staff is very friendly. The rates are best in the San Francisco area. More

If you plan to spend a night near SFO between flights, go to the Super 8. Its on El Camino Real and just 10 min to SFO by Taxi. The rooms are clean and large. The hotel staff are polite and friendly. I liked the large bed in the room which was something I didnt expect in a hotel of... More

It was prom weekend and my boyfriend was flying in for it. We wanted to save Money and spent hours looking for the right hotel for us. When discovering super 8 I was instantly relieved to see how incredibly low the price was! When we got to the hotel room we were both in shock of how clean and fancy... More

Prices are incredibly high in San Francisco but not @ the Super8 San Mateo. The mananger, Kish and his wife are very personable and will try to make your stay enjoyable. You'll find the location convienent and those traveling by motorcycle will like the covered parking. Free too. You will be hard pressed to find free parking once you leave... More

This motel did not meet our expectations. It was in a business area, and just off the California State 101 Freeway. In fact, too close to the 101 freeway. Fortunately the hotel is fenced off from it. My husband and I saw a scruffy-looking man standing next to the hotel dumpster when we drove in. He kept looking through the... More
