Stayed here because I didn't feel like driving home & back. One of the worst hotel stays ever! Old carpet, noisy refrigerator. Was put in a room next to the gym which was being used 'til 11:00 p.m. (Noisy). Parking lot was being taken up by several big rigs. No welcome gift for my status with Marriott........... Just not a... More

I recently spent 3 days in this hotel with my wife & 3-year old daughter. We were visiting San Francisco for the weekend, and this place had gotten GREAT reviews on Yelp, Google, etc. Well, the day before we got there, apparently, the phones and internet went down in the hotel. Now if they had told me this "before" I... More

I was a little concerned when I saw how close the hotel is to the freeway and to the private airport, but I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it was. The people were very nice as I checked in, there are cookies to "greet" you when you return around 5pm in the lobby. The morning breakfast was a typical Fairfield... More

During my stay of 4 nights I had no hot water for 3 of them. In addition, the breakfast area was so small and crowded that I did not even bother with trying to elbow my way through to get to the food. The internet connection was very slow. I have stayed at this hotel various times over the last... More

If you are visiting San Carlos, Redwood City, Redwood Shores, or many local businesses like Oracle, Electronic Arts, and similar this is a great location. The hotel is less than .5 mile from highway 101, but located in a largely residential and big business area, which means it is quiet on the weekends. It is also close to the San... More

I was staying here for business so proximity to work was a key consideration. These types of hotels are not 5 star or luxury resorts, so I look for 3 key items when I stay at a hotel like this, and the Fairfield Inn in San Carlos delivered on all 3. 1) Cleanliness The hotel appears to be recently refurbished....

Stayed here for a handful of nights and i must say that the place can be improved a lot. The location is good, but the morning breakfast is limited. The rooms are just about right for one or two persons. I got a room which was facing the road, and it was a pain when it gets really silent, as... More
