Bay Landing San Francisco Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"10 minutes from SFO."

Maple Tree Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We were thankful for a warm welcome from the front desk staff. They welcomed us and explained the amenities available with a welcome smile. we were given our choice of which floor we preferred, which I realize is not always possible. Our stay involved a medical need for my husband so when we added a room for our family, the staff was very accommodating in placing them close by. The dining buffet was very well designed with great choices of breakfast foods and a pancake maker which my family really enjoyed. The dining room just felt like a happy choice and there was the option of eating in the dining room or on the poolside area. The only down side of this Inn was the inability of our Verizon service for our phone. And with that negative it was more than likely MY lack of knowledge and not the fault of the motel. We will definitely book there when we need to go for future needs."

Dinah's Garden Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a lovely hotel and a unique experience. We were in town for a family event and I needed a pool! They have a heated, salt water? pool as well as a restaurant with poolside dining and you can enjoy snacks and drinks by the pool. The hotel is decorated with a Thailand/Polynesian motif and two large elephants greet you at the door! The desk staff were very nice and welcoming. There is a koi pond, more like a river, that runs through the property. We enjoyed dinner by the pool and didn’t have to drive anywhere which made it more relaxing. All in all, I really needed that mini-vacation and look forward to the next time we can stay there!"
