Howard Johnson Express San Mateo-SFO South - ซานมาเทโอ

Room was clean and the TV was excellent. Our room was close to the road and you could hear the traffic going by. We also had a noisy neighbor. The remodeled bathroom did not have a soap holder and the vent did not work. The office/ breakfast room is very tiny and cramped with only 4 tables. We used this location to be close to SFO.

When I checked in, the staff told me that the next day some cable guy was going to come through my room between 10 and 5 to do some work. They refused to schedule around occupancy even though I was paying for the room! The motel room door itself was moldy as was the bathroom window. Everything was stripped down. Don't expect much. I only stayed the […] first night and got out of the next 2 nights. I'll never pick a HoJo again. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Motel is clearly made over from some previously run-down condition, but its exterior is very nice. The room on the inside was apparently refurbished--and very clean--but had some odd repairs like badly patched holes in the bathroom door. The bed was actually very comfortable--we slept very well all three nights. Outside noise from other guests was quite […] audible at night, and as this is a budget motel you can imagine that some of your neighbors might be less polite about nighttime noise than you might prefer. Parking was free, which is nice for the Bay Area, but again leads to other issues with the adjacent guests likely to stay here. The free breakfast was of the "you get what you pay for" variety, with a few bland cereal choices, oatmeal packets, cellophane pastries, bread and bagels. I wouldn't try to keep the kids happy here, but for my wife and I this was a comfortable "base of operations on a budget." อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Pros: breakfast, price, parking, wi-fi, and comfort. Cons: Shower - water not that much. Overall - not that bad

The room was totally upgraded and nice inside with a new flat screen TV, however it's basically an old renovated motor hotel. I did get what I paid for but was looking for something very inexpensive.

Was very surprised by how nice, clean, and safe this hotel was. Was a great value for the rate. And the in room safe was nice.

Very good value for the price, friendly helpful staff. Room was a little tired, had a faulty dead bolt, was missing an armchair and had a minor ant invasion, but was clean and functional. Given the convenient location (Hwy 92 and 101) I would stay there again.

This place would be ok for just a few days to deal with. The top blanket looked dirty so I threw that to the ground. On the 2nd day the toilet was plugged up so I called front desk. Was told it would be taken care of. We got back late and nothing was done. Called front desk and the person acted like what was he supposed to do. I then said,"So what are […] we going to do if we need to use the toilet? It needs to be fixed now. I was told it would be done 12hrs ago." He guy brings in a plunger and without it being cleaned or wrapped up he just carries it across the room dripping. Glad I brought slippers, but when I got home the bottom of them were black. This place is not as the picture shows. Poorly & cheaply refurbished. This is a 2 thumbs down!! Wouldn't stay here again. Rather be by the airport... Plus continental breakfast is a joke! อ่านเพิ่มเติม

While this is an older motel, they have done the modern updates with laminate flooring, LCD Tvs etc...only thing the room was on the small side and we had a king bed, so get a queen if you need more actual room. Staff was very helpful.

Stayed five nights. Newly remodeled rooms are very attractive and generally clean, but they would do well to damp mop the hardwood floors--wife's feet were black from walking on them barefoot. Pretty complete continental breakfast. A problem with heater/AC was fixed promptly and staff was very friendly and professional. Well run--good bang for the  […] buck. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

I come to San Mateo for 5 business trips per year and always stay here for the past few years. The staff is very friendly and accomodating.

The hotel was easy to locate with a big INN sign, and this was a nice start. The lady at the counter offered free bottle of ice cold water without charges, and kindly answered my questions about the surrounding area. The room was cozy with the feel of IKEA. Then, after a closer inspection, the bathroom was not exactly spotless clean, and the bathroom […] door seemed to be repaired by a non-professional handy man. This may have bothered my wife a bit, but it was totally okay by me. The free wifi internet was very fast. Free breakfast (available till 10AM) was okay. They had a desktop PC without any restrictions and a laser printer for guests to use. I happened to need to print something and it was able to do it with a usb stick. Lastly, the parking lot might be a little narrow, but white poles did serve as a good guard. Overall, it was a 5 * for me, for the value and comfort. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

I booked this hotel for my dad/sis for their visit here. It's actually right next to a pool hall that I have been to. My sister sounds upset when we pulled in cuz it looks like a dump and asked me if I came to check it out before booking it. Their room is on 2nd floor, no elevator so you might want to ask for the ground floor. We were fine with it. Upon […] entering the room, my sister was pleasantly surprised - wood floor throughout, very modern, bed looks very comfy and very clean blankets (not those old ones from motels) microwave, fridge, and most importantly free wi-fi. I like the location cuz it's right next to 92 and get on 101 in no time. Walkable distance to a strip mall with japanese supermarket and some burrito places. Pretty safe neighborhood as far as I know in the day time. I won't recommend it if you want to go to SF daily to visit (no traffic 30mins, traffic no idea!) i heard breakfast was very simple just bagels coffee. For the price I paid and for the nice looking room, I would definitely stay here myself. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

For the price and location, great hotel. Definitively recommend. It is an older hotel that has been completely remodeled. Very modern and classy rooms.

Overall the Hotel was good for the price and the location was close to Half Moon Bay but the woman at the front desk, who did mention it was her first day, gave another couple the key to our room. Luckily we were there at the time they came in but needless to say, we were pretty shocked when we heard the door unlock and saw someone walk in. Other than […] that everything else was decent. Not great but like I said, it was cheap and close to where we were going. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

The staff was super helpful, the recent remodel decent, the location outstanding (near busline, short walk to train, San Mateo Convention Center or downtown San Mateo). The rooms had everything you needed (cable, big screen T.V.s comfy beds, clean linens, iron, phone, clock radio, coffee maker, fridge, safe, openable windows). However, the rooms were […] not clean, as I was a little creeped out by cob webs in bathroom fan, hair in tub drain, mold on shower curtain, stains on chair, sticky floors. I wish I had asked housekeeping to re-clean the room, DEEPLY, before I stayed 4 nights. They were all so nice I'm sure they would have, but I woosed out and lived with it. Wish I had brought clorox wipes :-) I will next time! อ่านเพิ่มเติม

They had great cable! Everything was good except the shower was hard to turn on. The breakfast was alright. If you have a big truck it can be hard to park when the lot fills up.

Definitely an older hotel. Didn't smell or look clean, not very comfortable. I would pass...

This was a nice place to stay at. very clean. The peope very friendly

The hotel is an 'express' hotel which means you get a room with limited services and extraneous amenities. That being said, the room was clean and there was no bad surprises. The area is just off a major street and you can hear road noises but the area seems safe during the day or night. There are some plusses with this hotel. It is near a Safeway and […] there are many restaurants choices in both directions. There is WiFi available and it works. The TV has a basic cable package any my room had a flatscreen TV with fridge and microwave. When I travel I am happy when there is adequate pressure in the shower and if the toilet flushes so I can happily say that this Hojo exceeded my expectations and is a good choice for a business traveler on a budget. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

We liked the motel. Good service except my messages were deleted by staff ( not sure if accident or not). they were re4coverd by cell phone. Room clean,bed comfy, all ammenities,frige, microwave, coffee maker. Will bring food next time as rm service very expensive. Nice little breakfast offered guests. Use of computer in lobby very nice as we needed […] printer for mapquest directions. Staff very accomodating and good hospitality. We enjoyed our stay there and will return. Very reasonable pricing as well, which was welcomed. location was good also as we had and engagement near by and it was very convenient to the event and the mall afterwards and access to the freeway for further travel. Lots of other places to eat near by as well. again, we will return. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

updated room....lipstick on a pig....still smells...even though it's purportedly a "non smoking" hotel, my room reeked...if not for having already been given a room that look like it was never made up, I would have moved. Pillows are that hard, foam. Breakfast was equally spartan and lame. Let's just say they aren't underpromising and overdelivering....it's […] a cheap hotel... อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Small room, sticky floor, and smelled of smoke, asked for non-smoking!!!!!!

Not the Ritz, but it works.

The bed was exceptionally hard and caused my hips to hurt. Thus, I slept very little. The light from the parking lot was a though the light in my room was on. The blinds did not block the light.

The first time everything was satisfactory and slightly above. Look, it's a HoJo and it works for short business trips. My first stay was in a King room. The room was clean and comfortable and was perfect for my purposes. The second time I opted for the Queen room to save a few bucks. Did someone just call me cheap?!? So, the Queen room was a downgrade […] in everything, from bed size to comfort, cleanliness and the bathroom. If I had stayed in the Queen room first I would not have gone back. If you stay here, which is perfectly fine if you have to be in San Mateo, then don't be cheap like me and get a King room. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Very convenient and an easy point from which to access the city. $30 cab from SFO and near Caltrain.

I stayed for 4 nights and had no problems with the hotel. The bed was clean, the air conditioner worked, and the TV remote actually worked. The bathroom was clean. Overall the room was utilitarian. I didn't realize there was a refrigerator until the 2nd night. I also didn't have a soap bar the first night, but that was easily fixed. The wireless internet […] was free and worked nicely. Check in and check out were awfully fast. This is not a 5-star hotel but if all you need is a place to stay, then this is it. อ่านเพิ่มเติม

Its a decent price for the hotel... Shower was kind of small barly two people can fit in there .. bed was lil hard.. but it was good ehough... have comcast for tv.. but no hook up for a dvd or video game system.. i like the wifi signal... food places right there in walking distance... and good neighborhood. i would stay there again if i got the same […] price again.... อ่านเพิ่มเติม

We had gone for a holiday weekend and the pool was closed. Very disappointing for our children and family. It was a good value for the money.
