The staff was very friendly and helpful at check in/out, which made this stay very positive. It was a clean, comfortable, and safe hotel for a quick overnight business trip (as a woman traveling alone, I felt secure). The included breakfast was a plus. A decent burrito can be found across the street at Chavez Supermarket, but food options in the immediate vicinity seemed few and mostly fast food.
I recently stayed at a brand new Best Western Plus (in Coaling) and was impressed by the very stylish modern decor and total spotlessness. This one in Redwood City is a good effort at upgrading a former motel in the same style, but felt a little more low-budget (though at a similar price point). Nevertheless, I appreciate the move toward clean, modern interiors, which are much more appealing than some of the more dated hotels you find.
