This is a repeat hotel for us as we use the SF Airport at least once a year. The location is not great for walking or getting exercise - but there are a number of shopping areas and restaurants within walking distance. The staff is helpful and the breakfast (included) is very good, having improved in the past few years.

No great.
The pictures are misleading. Only the front of the hotel looks nice. I was sent to the back half, which is just two apartment buildings converted into hotel rooms. I also think some people may or may not be living there.

Hotel is an older facility, but you can tell that the owners/staff have made an effort to keep the facilities clean and updated as possible. It was a bit noisy (people in parking lot, running down the hallways) which made it feel less safe/comfortable.

Exceptional value in the area. The room is a little dated but very clean. Parking is plentiful and convenient. The included breakfast is great. I think they have an actual chef making real food. The breakfast really puts the value of this hotel over the top. Convenient location to airport and mass transit too.
