"First of all we were freaked out at the number of terrible reviews I read once we had booked this room. We were relieved to find out that the majority of peoples complaints were unfounded. We were checked in by a lovely young woman and not the virtual check-in everyone seemed to be so upset about. I'm not service of that check-in option had been discontinued or if the system was down.

Dandy retreat convenient location

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (2)
"If I had to describe to someone the definition of cool or alpha, I would just show them a picture of Alvin. However, be prepared for Alvin to establish his dominance by smashing the hottest chicks next door. Some people may view Alvin’s superiority as a turnoff, but trust me when I tell you from first hand experience that you will be nothing but turned on during your stay.

3.0 star property
5.0 out of 10, (935)
"We we not even sure we had gotten the right room. The beds were not queen size like in the reservation. 1 made a terrible amount of noise when you moved around on it. The cleanliness was questionable. The pool had very limited hours but looked clean. Overall a NO frills place."

ANDULORE COTTAGE - Near Burlingame Ave - Remodeled - Spacious Backyard Retreat

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (73)
"We needed a place near my aunt in Foster City and Robert’s place fit the bill perfectly! It’s a cute, beautifully decorated and well-appointed home with a large yard even prettier than in the photos. We enjoyed coffee sitting outside. The train does run through nearby but we weren’t bothered too much by it. Robert was quick to respond to some questions and even brought by some new items. Highly recommend Robert’s place if you need a place convenient located between SF and Palo Alto."
