“Comfortable and Clean in a semi decent location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 15, 2012

I usually only stay here when all the San Francisco Starwood hotel rates are too high for what I'm willing to spend. I've stayed here many times for business, and last weekend, I booked 3 hotel rooms for my family who was visiting California for the first time. The breakfast buffet was a bonus inclusion to our rooms and the food is fairly decent, however if the buffet wasn't included with the room, I would've preferred to order from the restaurant's menu instead. Each room was very clean, and the front desk person who checked us in (I think his name was Mark) was exceptionally accommodating. I had a lot of questions about the rooms and wanted them in specific locations in the hotel, and he was patient and totally understanding of my requests. It's service like that, that keeps me coming back.

I don't exactly love the lobby area. I think it needs updating. However the rooms look almost identical to any other Westin hotel, which is what mattered to me the most. I like it when hotel chains are consistent in quality. This location also has an awesome indoor pool which, for as many times as I have stayed there, was almost always empty.

The only other thing is the location was just a few mins by car to Burlingame, and less than 20 mins by freeway to the city. But it would be pretty inconvenient to find a place to eat and hang out at that was within walking distance.

“Excellent, safe and easy to find”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 7, 2012

Arrived late at night for a one night stay. Staff at front desk were pleasant, helpful and speedy. Room was very clean, comfortable bed and great shower. I didn't eat breakfast but appreciated the Starbucks to go cup and coffee maker in room. It may not have been at the same level as most downtown, centrally located Westin hotels but for an airport chain, was perfect for my stay - no complaints and would stay there again. I would only say look for deals online as the website does usually have a high rate on weekdays - if you shop around, you might be able to find a lower rate.

“overlooked and excellent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 1, 2012

stayed here for a conference and so glad I did. Excellent staff, rooms and hotel in great shape. Airport shuttle is complimentary. Great place for meetings and layovers. Outside of that, if you have a rental car it would be ok, not much in the immediate vicinity to do.

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 25, 2012

I was going to SF for a quick weekend trip with some friends. We were up there for a football game. This location was perfect. It was about 15 minutes away from the stadium but more like an hour away on game day. The rooms were nice and clean. The bed was very comfortable. So comfortable that when some rude people were really loud in the hallway at 12:30am I couldn't move. I was too comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

“conference stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 20, 2012

Just back from San Fran and my first stay at this hotel. It has a nice scent upon entry and well- dressed and well-mannered staff. Check-in was efficient and friendly. Throughout the conference I noticed staff made sure they made eye contact with you and were attentive to your well-being.

I have two caveats - one was that I was not informed of the Green program (receive $5 vouchers for being 'green'). I learned of this program from a colleague on my last day. The other caveat was I rang the Front Desk on two occasions and didn't receive a response. I hung and waited a few minutes and tried again and was able to reach the Front Desk staff. The Business Office scanner was down temporarily when I and some wanted to use it so that was not helpful (hey, its technology, life happens).

There was a seawall across the street which was great for walks mid-day and watching the constant traffic of air traffic at the airport was nice break also.There are not too many restaurants in short walking distance to the hotel.

The airport shuttle service was efficient, courteous, and professional.

The room was well-appointed with a nicely-sized desk and office chair. Internet access was available from one's room in blocks of time ($4.95 for 6 hours) which suited attending the conference workshops and sessions. Wireless access was available in the lobby but that access speed was woefully slow (you get what you pay for). The bed and linen were just right. The hotel looks a little worn but nice nonetheless.

The heated pool was a welcome way to start and end the day.

The food was very well prepared and I appreciated the extent to which the staff were willing to go to meet your needs.

I look forward to a return visit in the summer.
