Why 4 stars? Because this ended up being a really solid hotel for my stay…read more --- --- --- I was attending a conference in Redwood City and there was not many great hotel options to choose from. I opted for the Courtyard many for Bonvoy purposes, but I wasn't sure how the walk to my conference would be. It was at the Fox Theater and basically about one mile away, but when in California, you never know how sketchy a walk can be. As it turns out, zero percent sketchy. As for the hotel itself, it had free parking, which was nice because I had a rental car and a friend that stopped by to visit. However, I ended up getting a note that I parked somewhere I wasn't supposed to, and was completely confused about that because I parked where everyone else did and there was no signage saying my spot was forbidden. Oh well. The lobby had a "restaurant" with a few items and coffee, as well as a small area with drinks and snacks. Once in the room, it wasn't overly impressive, but did the job. The biggest drawback for me were the tiny pillows (I still don't know anyone who prefers a small pillow over a long one. But when I asked for a couple extras, they were normal sized, so I was able to create a makeshift body pillow out of those. The shower had good pressure and got super hot, so no notes there. There was a small couch, which was perfect because I wanted to watch an NBA playoff game while I was in here and am glad I didn't have to do so from the bed. (Apologies to anyone who heard lots of yelling from room 414 during your stay). I got coffee each morning, but learned my lesson from ordering food the first day. The avocado toast was, um, rough. But hey, all of the hotel stuff was pretty good, so that's what's

Strong 4 stars for our weekend stay. Good central location. Our room, king bed, was super comfy,…read moreeverything was clean, no sticky floors. The staff at this property were exemplary, friendly and accommodating with every request. We have stayed here multiple times and will keep coming back. My only ding is the $24 per night parking which seems excessive seeing as how the parking lot doesn't cost them a dime.

The area is on a busy street, and the parking was a little confusing at first, but once we figured it out, everything was easy. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a mini fridge and microwave, which were exactly what we needed. I also appreciated that the bathroom was stocked with Dove toiletries. The only part that left a bad impression was check in. The employee helping us assumed the two people behind us were part of our reservation and made a comment about there only being room for two. Since we had reserved a room with a sofa bed, the comment felt unnecessary and made for an awkward first impression. Everything else was great. The continental breakfast was clean and well stocked with hot and cold options, and the employee working the breakfast area did an excellent job keeping everything organized. The coffee wasn't my favorite, and I wish the TVs were smart TVs instead of cable only, but those were minor things. Check out was quick, and the front desk employee that morning was very friendly. Overall, this hotel worked perfectly for what my mom and I needed, and I would stay here again if I needed to be in the area.

We stayed here just once for one night, and arrived quite late about 9:30 pm after a long day of…read moreexploration and a party on the coast. We were exhausted, and ready to hit the hay after a quick shower. This location is new to us and we didn't know it would be kind of right on the main road, but the building was pretty easy to find with GPS even though it was quite dark out. The street this hotel is on was kind of sketchy in some parts, but it is Rewood City, so it was still pretty safe. We parked quickly and went into the lobby to check in. We had to wait about 5 minutes as someone else was checking in who actually just booked in person and paid cash. Thankfully it looked like he just last minute needed a place to stay with his girlfriend/wife and it wasn't like a motel transaction going on. In any case, we got checked in and went up to our room on 2nd floor. I thought about asking for a room on the 3rd floor in case we would hear noise from the floor above, but any noise was well insulated enough that it was quite quiet all night. From the photos you can see it's standard HIE room layout, decor, bedding, bathroom set-up. All of it were pretty clean and smelled fresh if a little strong of chemicals. The only thing were that there's not enough hangers and the bench was worn out. The beds were standard hotel queens, comfortable, but not as big as real queens, so more like doubles. The shower was strong but a little weird to operate. We slept pretty well, and the AC cycled on and off to cool the room but we set it so we wouldn't freeze. Next morning, we went down to the first floor for the breakfast which was pretty standard HIE fare. There were quite a lot of guests, so the room got a bit crowded but the staff replenished the food quickly and people came and went so there was room enough for those who wanted to eat there rather than take back to their room. We ate and then packed up and checked out. My husband and kids checked out the fitness room and said it was literally just a couple of treadmills and that was it, there were no free weights or anything else, so that was disappointing. There's also no pools or a spa here so if you're looking for those amenities, this is not the right hotel for you. Overall, if was a good stay, but we probably wouldn't come back if we were not just passing through and needed a place to stay for the night before getting back.

Room was clean and in good repair, a mini fridge and microwave was put to good use, the front desk was friendly and helpful, good TV, bed a little soft but still comfortable.

Be aware if you are here for an early AM Stanford appointment, El Camino Real going south toward Stanford is bumper-to-bumper at rush hour; allow extra time. Decent option for a reasonably priced hotel option near Stanford.

It's a very good value for what you get. Other than some stains on the carpet, everything was clean. We stayed in the one first story handicapped room. The handicapped parking spot is pretty far away from the room. It could be situated much closer. The room is large with a large shower. They have a microwave, small fridge and coffee pot. The pillows were nice and the bed is comfy. When we checked in the girl sent me in the wrong direction for the room. I had to go back to get correct directions. The room numbers were very hard to see from afar. There was no breakfast and pool was not available because of Covid-19. We ordered pizza and salad from Pronto Pizzaria through Grubhub. Just make sure you ask for utensils and napkins. It was very good pizza and fresh salad. This was good for one night stay.
