Snel Overzicht: A 'W Hotel' on a budget that's showing its age, sitting awkwardly between a highway and a runway.

Beoordeeld door @WanderlustbynyrI usually dread airport hotels, but my stay here was a total vibe. The live music and cocktails at W XYZ Bar made me forget I was in transit. Plus, the shuttle to SFO is super reliable. Definitely my go-to for San Francisco layovers now.

The hype

Travelers love the shuttle reliability and comfy beds, but hate the parking costs and worn-out carpets.

Reality check

The 'hip' lobby vibe often clashes with the reality of tired hallways and the occasional smell of marijuana.

  • You have an early morning flight and want a reliable shuttle
  • You travel with a dog (very pet-friendly)
  • You want a hotel bar that actually stays open late

Schoonmaak & Onderhoud

7
  • Housekeeping: Hit or miss. Many reports of 'missed spots' and dust. You must request daily service.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, but watch for mold in the grout of the walk-in showers.
  • Maintenance: Aging. Scuffed walls, worn carpets, and the occasional slow-draining sink are common.
  • Linens & towels: Standard Marriott quality—crisp enough, but check your mattress protector (isolated bed bug report in 2022).
  • Odors & scents: Lobby smells like signature Aloft perfume; hallways occasionally smell like marijuana.

Voordat je boekt

Goed om te weten

  • The airport shuttle is shared with the Westin next door—allow extra time.
  • Mobile check-in is available and recommended to skip the often-busy front desk.
  • There is no room service, only the 24/7 'Re:fuel' pantry.

Wat je mee moet nemen

  • Earplugs for the hallway noise
  • Swimsuit for the heated indoor pool
  • Refillable water bottle (filtered water stations in the gym)

Kamer Genie

Beste keuzes

  • Top floor (7th) facing the bay for less overhead noise and a decent view
  • End of hallway rooms to minimize foot traffic noise

Kamers om te vermijden

  • Rooms near the elevators (constant dinging)
  • Lower floor rooms facing the highway (traffic hum + lobby bass)

Kamer Aanvraag Genie – kopiëren en plakken

I'd love a room on the highest possible floor, away from the elevator and ice machine. If possible, a bay view would be amazing to avoid the highway noise.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips

Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.

Is the airport shuttle actually free?

Yes, it runs roughly every 15-20 minutes 24/7. It picks up at the Hotel Shuttle Courtyard at SFO.

Can I walk to the BART station?

Technically yes (15-20 mins), but it requires crossing terrifying highway on-ramps. Take the shuttle to SFO and catch BART there instead.

Is breakfast included?

No. The 'Re:fuel' station sells breakfast pots ($12-14) and pizzas ($18). Coffee in the room is free.

How much is parking?

Self-parking is ~$48/night. It is managed by a third party (AirGarage) and enforcement is strict.

Is it pet friendly?

Yes, very. $50/night fee, max 2 dogs (40lbs limit). They provide a bed and bowl.

Is there a resort fee?

No explicit resort fee, but the high parking and pet fees act as hidden costs.


Tips van Insiders

  • Walk 5 minutes south to the Westin to use their slightly more upscale restaurant, Grill & Vine.

  • The 'Re:fuel' pantry prices drop for some items late at night—check for clearance stickers.

  • Uber to downtown Millbrae ($10) for food; it's infinitely better than the hotel snacks.

5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat

  • 💡The 'Park & Fly' crowd means the parking lot is often fuller than the hotel itself.

  • 💡The hallway carpets are trippy/industrial but hide stains a little *too* well.

  • 💡You can hear the lobby music thumping from the 2nd-floor rooms.

  • 💡The 'Bay View' is mostly a view of a parking lot with water in the distance.

  • 💡Housekeeping is 'light' by default; you have to aggressively request a full clean.
