Pros (+) Easy access
Cons (-) It definitely was a weekly. Walls are thin. Coffe not good, no cream n sugar in the room. We had small children. I called when booking the room. The FD agent said he'd put us by each other and when I checked in that was not the case. We delt. It was only for 2 nights. Pool looked dirty I didng let the kids swim.
Cons (-) My plane got in to SFO at 12:30. I got a voicemail that lobby was closed and keys at bar. Went there and bar was closed and there was no note and no one there. Not even a night watchman which seems unsafe. Had to drive around and find another hotel at 2am. Never got refund.
