Bay Landing San Francisco Airport Hotel

Bay Landing San Francisco Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The room was large, clean, and updated. The bathroom was clean and good shower. The bed was comfortable and not too firm like most hotels. There was a very good breakfast included. Parking was convenient right near front entrance and free."

Hotel Zephyr San Francisco

Hotel Zephyr San Francisco

8/10 Good
"I enjoyed my stay and don’t have major complaints. Great location. The blinking of the lamps gets a bit annoying (I remember another room had the same issue when we stayed there last year). Honestly I would have left a 5 star review but I got annoyed with the seemingly mandatory request to select check out time which ended up being just a funnel to leaving a Google Maps review. There is absolutely no reason for me to have to select the exact time I leave the hotel. I never saw that practice anywhere else in the world."
