I stayed at the Crowne Plaza near the SFO airport, and overall it was a decent experience, but not without its issues.
What I liked:
The location is super convenient; close to the freeway but tucked off to the side enough that you don’t hear all the traffic noise. The room was clean, and the gym had a decent setup with enough equipment for a quick workout. It's a chill, quiet vibe for being right by the airport.
What I didn’t like:
Housekeeping was honestly frustrating. I’ve never stayed at a hotel where you have to request room cleaning every single day, even after telling them at check-in that I’d like daily service. They kept forgetting, so I had to call multiple times throughout my stay just to get basic service. That kind of inconsistency shouldn't happen at a hotel in this price range.
Also, on the first night, I was given a room with one bed even though I requested two. They fixed it the next day, but I had to repack and move all my stuff after already settling in, not ideal when you're traveling.
Restaurant options on-site were okay, but limited and definitely on the expensive side. The pool area looked like it could use a deep clean. Parking is $25 per night.
It’s not a bad place to stay if you want something near the airport that’s quiet and convenient. But just know going in that you’ll have to stay on top of the staff for housekeeping and double-check your room details.
