Jilai

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The price is reasonable, especially for the Bay Area, which is a big plus. However, the hotel feels very newly built, and the room had a strong smell of paint or construction materials, which was quite noticeable. It’s fine for a short stay, but I wouldn’t recommend it for a longer stay or with kids

Joel

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
In the first room, we looked at the bathroom, had water by the toilet and some dirt. It was unclear with the fluid represented parentheses body excrement versus toilet water). In the second hotel room, we were shown there were hairs in the bathroom in the third hotel room, there was sticky stuff between the two beds unclear if this represented some type of bodily fluid. At that point, we were totally fed up and disgusted by the appearance and left the hotel. There was no one on site to talk with. We spoke with a person by a video feed and informed them of our dissatisfaction. I subsequently went on to speak with hotels.com within an hour or so after we had left that hotel, and found a room at the Hilton hotel, which was appropriately clean. I spoke with a Chantelle through hotels.com yesterday evening, and she informed me that our refund it would be given. I await to hear a confirmation of the refund. Additionally hotels.com should consider strongly not carrying this hotel and its recommended hotel listings.
