Holiday Inn San Francisco - Intl Arpt - No

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 16 Oct 2011 rated 3 out of 10.

Nothing good to say about this hotel. Priceline definitely needs to downgrade it's star rating. I did not feel safe in the lobby or parking lot so could not leave for anything until morning check out. I pray I never get this hotel again! And they even have the nerve to charge for parking now!

Positives: Nothing

Negatives: Did not feel safe, location is bad, they charge for parking now, loud bar atmosphere in lobby...

Average hotel bit expensive and more catered to the business travel rather than tourist.

Positives: Room service was very professional.

Negatives: No swimming pool. TV reception was very poor.

Hotel is located close to SFO airport. We arrived late and we accommodated with an after-midnight check-in. Hotel facilities were worked and seemed dirty. Hallways smelled bad. Room itself was nicer than hallways and lobby areas.

Positives: Easy to find.

Negatives: Poor condition of facilities. Sloppy. Worked.

The hotel has nice facilities in the lobby and restaurant is excellent; the guest staff was friendly and considerate; the room was spacious but the showers were inoperable the whole weekend; we complained to staff and they promised to comp us one night for each room; lets see if they kept their promise.

Positives: Location is excellent; close to a airport and major highway.

Negatives: The room facilities were awful; there was no water pressure the first day in both rooms and the 2nd day no hot water.

Rooms are very large.

Positives: Convenient to other areas.

Good location for flying out from SFO. Hotel needs renovation.

Positives: The hotel employee at the check-in desk was extremely nice.

Negatives: Pretty ran-down, it needs renovation.

If you're looking for a bed in a quiet spot in a pretty good location, this is the hotel for you. There was front-desk person who was worth her weight in gold. Also surprisingly quiet for how close it was to 101. The rest of the amenities were hassles. The Wi-Fi was spotty at best and Ethernet was where to be found. The elevators and painfully slow and the stairs are only good for going down and no going up. (I was told they don't allow upward access for safety reasons; which makes no sense because they could just install the same card reader akin to the installation in the elevator) Talking to the managers at night were a waste of my time. I was so frustrated with the remote control and my two calls were never answered. Don't even get me started on the iron. Luckily, the housekeeping staff was very quick to respond and provide a new iron. Then there was the gym - The elliptical had one working handle bar and will someone please replace the smoke detector batteries?

Positives: Checking Out - Fast and painless.

Negatives: Hallway smell; broken equipment in Gym; elevator system.

Not what I expected from a 3-star rating. I felt ripped off. The place needs a major renovation.

Positives: Not much. Free WiFi.

Negatives: Crumbling sheetrock, peeling paint, gaudy furnishings, picture falling off wall, moldy shower.

I would definitely stay there again service was good not perfect, but good enough the room was delightful.

Negatives: Lobby was a bit scrunchy.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 24 Feb 2011 rated 9 out of 10.

It was very nice.

Negatives: No continental breakfast.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 14 Jan 2011 rated 10 out of 10.

This hotel is better than a 3 star,<BR/>I would give it at least a 3.5 with their renovated rooms. The staff was very nice and helpful.<BR/>I very much enjoyed my 9-day stay here.

Positives: Better than expected. We had a renovated room. It was very nice and a sweet surprise!

Negatives: The bathroom was not very well ventilated.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 31 Dec 2010 rated 4 out of 10.

I was pretty disappointed with the quality of the hotel. This hotel needs to invest in a full remodel rather than swapping out the furniture.

Positives: Quick and efficient check in.

Negatives: The hotel was really dirty; it's time to change the carpets, and vacuum.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 16 Dec 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

Excellent friendly staff, clean rooms and<BR/>decent restaurant.

Positives: The front desk staff were excellent.

Negatives: Parking is horrific. Each time checked in (evening) took forever to find a spot. Long walk to hotel.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 14 Dec 2010 rated 4 out of 10.

Apparently renovations were in process. Considerable parking space was taken up with containers &amp; parking was a problem. The &quot;business center&quot; was a desk in the front lobby and was a &quot;pay to use&quot;. The room we had was in need of renovations. Carpet was in poor condition. No complimentary breakfast was available.

Positives: Restaurant food was good and hotel staff friendly and helpful.

Negatives: Hotel did not measure up to the pictures on the website, did not have 2 restaurants onsite and no complimentary breakfast. No real business center..

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 14 Aug 2010 rated 4 out of 10.

Didn't feel safe, car got lots of scratches from people leaning against it. Smoke in our room from other rooms and hall. Locked elevator needed repair. Maid service knocked at 8-9 each morning even though we were staying and had do not disturb on door. Bed was uncomfortable. No place to sit in room for two. No fridge or micro.

Positives: Nothing, they should tear it down and build again using no smoking workers!

Negatives: Lobby restrooms were horrible!

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 14 Aug 2010 rated 5 out of 10.

The restaurant looked nice, but the environment was a little scary, parking was sparse, the room hadn't been cleaned well enough to find a sock on the floor.

Positives: Convenient to the airport.

Negatives: We found a dirty sock in our room. Hotel needed security for elevator.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 17 Apr 2010 rated 6 out of 10.

The hotel overall was fine. I didn't like the fact that I couldn't get enough hot water and I could hear what was going on in the other rooms.

Positives: Convenience.

Negatives: Thin walls, not enough hot water.

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 09 Apr 2010 rated 1 out of 10.

The hotel is unsanitary and the staff is disinterested.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Bed bugs.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 18 Feb 2010 rated 6 out of 10.

I would stay here again if the bathroom was in better shape. Shower curtain rod wasn't installed correctly so curtain wouldn't stay closed. Wall paper was peeling and very dated. Staff was great and restaurant was superb.

Positives: Staff was good and room was clean.

Negatives: Bathroom needs big remodelling.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 03 Feb 2010 rated 8 out of 10.

A nice hotel for business or a short lay over, near the airport, but not much else.

Positives: Key card access to all guest floors and provides a enhanced feel of security.

Negatives: Parking.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 01 Feb 2010 rated 7 out of 10.

This hotel was in perfect location right next to the freeway. Hotel was clean, staff was friendly, no problem finding parking, &amp; free internet.

Positives: Perfect/conveniant location and hotel was clean.

Negatives: Nothing

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 26 Jan 2010 rated 10 out of 10.

This hotel is conveniently located for quick access to the airport. It reflects a warm ambiance and the experience is rewarding for those looking for good service from the staff. It meets or exceeds all general requirements for business and leisure travelers and does not disappoint in any way. It is consistent with the Holiday Inn charm that one might expect from this famous chain. By all means, stay there.

Positives: Staff was outstanding in terms of being helpful and courteous.

Negatives: Hotel Infrastructure is a bit dated , older dwelling.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 29 Dec 2009 rated 3 out of 10.

TV is not working, asked them to fix it, no result. Ice machine is not working has to go to difference floor to get it. Not very clean. Will not go there again. To much for the price that we pay. Not meeting my expectation for being Holiday Inn; there is Holiday Inn Express next block, looks very nice and clean.

Positives: Easy access from the freeway.

Negatives: Old.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 27 Dec 2009 rated 1 out of 10.

Staff does not know the meaning of the word hospitality. Not accommodating at all.

Positives: Nothing.

Negatives: Staff.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 16 Dec 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

Great hotel for the price (bid), service and cleanliness were 3-star, facility not as much: it seems to be getting shabby: cracks in sink and elevator, scuff marks on walls, etc. free parking (nearby hotel was $3), excellent airport access, only coffeepot in room, but microwave available. Again, helpful, friendly, and professional staff.

Positives: Excellent service, friendly professional staff, free parking.

Negatives: Getting old, shabby.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 02 Dec 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

Comfy beds, convenient location, and very good restaurant.

Positives: Great value, convenient location, comfy beds, and very good restaurant.

Negatives: Paid extra for microwave, maids service did not give us clean towels and more coffee as asked.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 08 Oct 2009 rated 2 out of 10.

Nice down stairs. However hall and room upstairs smell of smoke. No hot water in the morning. After issues of lound noise and music around 2 to 3 am, no sleep was had for 2 nights. Staff came up and asked them to lower the noise the first night. However the 2nd night, after being told they would ask them to leave, staff would not answer to desk phone to deal with the issue.

Positives: Lobby was nice.

Negatives: Room next to us had very loud music and yelling all night. Staff came up the first night, then the 2nd night they would not answer the desk phone

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 07 Oct 2009 rated 7 out of 10.

Front desk small and hectic for a hotel this size. The elevators were borderline scary: slow and not enough of them. Metal surfaces were painted rather unattractively. On the plus side: everything was clean.

Positives: Good value for the price I bid.

Negatives: Low ceilings, rundown and too few elevators.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 03 Oct 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

Not bad! room is directly across from the laundry center, so expect lots of noise. Otherwise, not too many negative comments,<BR/>the workout center was nice, but where's the pool?

Positives: Location!

Negatives: When

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 23 Aug 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

Bathroom clean but dated, the rest of the room was nice, and clean. The bed was comfortable, though my preference for pillows include something other than what was offered by the hotel.

Positives: Clean, close to airport.

Negatives: Airport shuttle often full, requiring wait for a later shuttle.
