I flew into SFO and called the hotel for the free shuttle pick up. After 10 calls (7 of which no one picked up the phone) they finally said that the shuttle driver is "flaky" and offered to pay for a cab, which I accepted. The room was OK, but the TV picture was bad and the coffee maker in the room was broken. The coffee maker was no problem because the hotel has coffee available 24/7 which was easier since it was just down the hall. The shuttle problem caused me to wait for 2 hours at the airport!!

We were inserted in South San Fran to build a new Lowe's Home Improvement Store. 10 days of 10 hour shifts straight. Our check in was horrid, as the man behind the desk could not locate our reservations and insisted we work for Contnental Airlines. To date our paperwork says so! Parking was tight.

But beyond that, our room was clean, they brought in a microwave & fridge, gave us extra pillows, towels, ashtrays & left extra cups when asked. The breakfast was ample and had hot food on it.

It was a comfortable place to crash for 12 nights.

We booked this hotel to stay one night before flying out of SFO and thankfully we were only there one night. The bedding had hairs in it, the hot water handle in the shower did not work properly, the television remote did not work, the carpets were dirty along with the tile floors and the room had an overall smell of being unclean.
After laying in the bed I had a red rash on my arm due to the bedding issues.
The noise was not horrible considering you are close to the hwy/airport. It appears there are plenty of hotels in this area and if you want a decent nights sleep, I would book somewhere else.

All in all our stay at LaQuinta was okay, but there were a few problems. The major problem was that when we made our reservation we were told that we would be in the main building, but when we got there to check in we were told that we would not be in the main building but in the annex between the train tracks. This caused us to have to walk to the main building in the morning for breakfast. Also the room was dated: the carpet was dirty, the fridge was not working, the microwave was broken, there was foam stuffing from the recliner on the floor, and the drapes were filthy. We were told that we would be moved to another room when it became available, but that never happened. In the end, because they had not followed up on what they said that they would do, they only charged us for one night (we stayed 4 nights). The hotel truly needs an overhaul, because it is in the ideal location, about 10 minutes from San Francisco's attractions and only 1 hour from Monterey. This hotel is a good base camp if you are only going to sleep there.
