    Bathroom in family room with 2 bedrooms
    Vic C.

    (Review based on 2.5 stars) The Atrium Hotel is an affordable hotel that you can find in San Bruno that has free WiFi, free parking and free breakfast. My husband and I stayed in a family room that has 2 separate rooms (a queen size bed in each room), one shared restroom with a second sink area, mini fridge and microwave. For this room, it cost $124 per night (prior to tax/ fees), which really is very affordable for the bay area. Please note that parking is free and covered. But it is not gated. But while we had our car parked, our car was safe. Breakfast is served every day from 6- 9 am. Offerings included sausage patties, a folded egg omelet with cheese inside (one of those frozen meals), dry cereal with milk, some assorted fruit, bread, juices, coffee and hot water for tea. The room itself was fine and check in was quick. But the major problem I had while staying here was the incredibly loud noise coming from the planes flying into SFO. It wasn't nearly as loud to hear the planes taking off though. Although I had read that the quiet hour is supposed to be between 10 pm- 6 am, I don't think the many planes flying in at night have gotten that memo because I heard planes flying in until around 2:30 am (unless I had finally fell asleep) and then heard them again around 5 am. I am a light sleeper so I hardly had any sleep during this hotel stay. My husband, who is a heavy sleeper, also struggled to fall asleep and stay asleep. I wouldn't recommend this place if you think the noise will bother you like it did for both my husband and I.

    The Atrium recently changed owners (according to someone I spoke with on the phone) prior to 10/1/22, it was known as Comfort Inn & Suites. On a recent business trip, I booked this hotel because of the location. It's easy access to both the 101 and 280 so for me to cross the Bay Bridge or go in to the Sunset was convenient. Plus, it's 5 minutes away from my friends' home. The surrounding isn't the best as there's a auto shop next door and surrounded by residential apartments. Sometimes, I hear someone trying to start his 'vintage' van in the early morning. The room is aged and it shows. Drawer knobs are loose, paint peeling a bit, doors are chipped but that's only if you're paying attention. Otherwise, it was comfortable for a single traveler. For some reason, my room stayed nice and warm throughout my trip. The bed has clean white sheets and pillows. The mattress isn't top shelf quality but not bad. They have small toiletries: shampoo, conditioner, lotion and makeup remover, plus small bar soaps. The rooms have a small fridge, microwave but no in-room safe, which would've been helpful. The fridge is so cold, all liquids I put in there froze. There's also a coffee machine that brews coffee pouches offered by the hotel. I brought my own pour-over because I'm a coffee snob. The glass elevator is on the outside of the building so you can see the neighbors, and they can see you. There's a breakfast room that's open from 6a to 9a, located on Floor 1. It's small, has a TV and overlooks someone's backyard. Hi kids!! They offer cereal, yogurt, mini muffins, apples, milk, oj & aj, tea, coffee, and waffles you can make, which I did on my last morning there and it wasn't good. Savory stuff: Only egg & cheese small omelettes and sausage patties, plus toast. The lobby at the bottom is very small. The staff is friendly. There are some seats for travelers to wait for their ride. They have hot water for tea and coffee at the lobby area, which leads to their parking lot. The parking is covered but not gated. So be smart and don't leave valuables in plain sight. When I stayed there, the hotel was doing some transitions. At one point when I was working on my laptop, it sounded like they were dropping bowing balls on the roof. They also changed WiFi during my stay, and it seemed faster after the switch. Overall, my stay was comfortable and decent. Being in town for work, it met my needs. There are plenty of good restaurants within 10 minutes drive towards San Mateo. Tips: * call them to inquire about airport shuttle service. * If you're getting gas, the station that's 2 blocks away is higher than the ones that are off Camino Real, about 5 blocks away * Occasionally you'll hear an airplane fly over. Bring earplugs to sleep at night. * The rooms have no USB ports so bring your own.

    SERVICE & CHECKIN An inviting small-business family-owned vibe. Their cordial & earnest staff provided a swift checkin experience. Early checkin was also free & Parking available onsite. Tap payment didn't work. Housekeeping staff are quick but noisy & unconventional. LOBBY, ELEVATOR, CORRIDORS An underdog. The reception area isn't much of a lobby. It's technically the garage level & more functional than social or decorative. But the common area on the first guest floor was very pleasant & had a quaint community feel. ROOM https://youtu.be/go8-11lIgMs Spacious, clean, & modern suite with a lot of function: Vibrant lighting, operational windows (cloudy & need a wash), sufficient storage & plenty of tabletop space. Dated color scheme & fixtures, yet it wasn't uncomfortable. Phones are overdue for a refresh; The number list is so old it's begun to brown & the Jack was broken so it slipped out constantly. BED (king) Excellent. Quality linens, supportive mattress, & so many pillows! Besides reading lights were great for low-light work late at night. BATH Pleasantly surprised. Small dimensions, dated low toilet, & tired design BUT they didn't compromise on the bathing experience--A premium combination tub with jets! Other highlights: High cleaning standards Well-maintained tile Textured towels Large vanity Manual exhaust & robust ventilation Roio toiletries TV & ENTERTAINMENT ~30" Samsung TV... duct taped to dresser; Unsightly but fully functional. Basic programming content offered. Ports were easily accessible & the model was mostly compatible with Google TV. WI-FI & CELL RECEPTION Good cell proximity; shouldn't have any problems with tethering or call quality. Heavily Imbalanced WiFi bandwidth which you'll feel if trying to multi task. Otherwise it was fine. --Performance-- Video streaming - good Online gaming - great Video chatting - great --Nerd Stats-- 78-98 Mbps download 4-6 Mbps upload 0% packet loss 12 ms latency 19 ms jitter FOOD & DRINK NOT DoorDash friendly. Wet bar sink, large mini fridge, full size microwave, & Hamilton beach coffee maker in room. No dish ware pre-stocked. Light Breakfast 6-9 & beverages in lobby. NOISE Noisy housekeeping was a bit of a headache. The residential area is also rowdy & there isn't much in the form of sound proofing. For the most part it was fine. VERDICT A Strong airport hotel with personable employees & a competitive offering. I'd stay here again & recommend it if this spot is on your radar. 4/5

    Supposedly there are blackout curtains but not obvious after playing around with the curtains for several minutes

    Room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was good. My only complaint was Street and airplane noise. Bring earplugs.

We were on the 2nd floor in the 2nd building. Outside of the hotel looks much rougher than the inside. The room was clean, be aware there is no microwave or fridge in the rooms. Water in the shower takes quite a bit of time to get warm enough to get in, they did not provide wash cloths or soap on the sink only shower gel affixed to the shower wall. The door between the sink and bathroom/shower area was a pocket door that was loud & squeaky (not a big deal with just my spouse and I) the fan in the bathroom did not work and there was a large patched hole in the pocket door that was painted an odd color. We were here just for the night and we were really didnt sleep much with the excitement of our upcoming flight. Budget friendly. There is also an ihop right next to the lobby so you can eat around the clock.

She was pleasant enough and because I was still an hour away drive from the hotel, she said she would make a note on the reservation that we wouldn't be in until 3a so the hotel wouldn't cancel our room. After taking our CC info, we were relieved to know we had a room for the morning. Fast forward to 3a when we tried to check in.. our room had been canceled. Supposedly I had said we'd be there in 10 minutes (absolutely no way i would've said this coming from SJ to SF). We tried to book while at the hotel and the front desk person said we couldn't. I'm just not understanding why phone agent would take my CC info knowing my room would most likely get canceled. Obviously making a note in the system didn't help. Why couldn't she have contacted the hotel front desk person for us to make sure? Also, since our room was canceled and there was definitely a room available when we arrived (assuming it wasn't the only room available and didn't get booked within the hour we made the reservation until arriving).. why couldn't we book that same room? In any case, we were super tired at 3a hoping to get some sleep before flying out of SFO but instead had to find another room. Highly annoyed.

First off, this is close-by SFO airport and if you are not local to SF, if you stay elsewhere, the traffic going back to the airport can be stressful. There is a parking fee per night of stay ($35 during my stay last week). Your room key is your card pass to the parking lot for most guests. Diamond tier have a more reserved parking spots near the entrance of the hotel. However, when I tried the key cards during my first day of stay, both cards weren't working. There is a help button which they buzzed me in afterwards. Throughout the entire week, the gate at Corporate drive was closed, no coming in and out so I would always have to go around. There was not a day that I didn't try to push the help button because my cards were not working even after asking for it to get check by front desk. Let me just say that all of the front desk agents are great, helpful and informative. With so many amenities, they try their best to explain each information to every guest. The hotel has 4 elevators. 2 at front and 2 at the back. You need to tap your hotel key card before you can push any floor buttons. I stayed in one of their newer rooms, the thermostat was set to a certain temperature. I did not felt any difference even when I changed it. I did not voiced this out because I was in and out of my room a lot. Breakfast is complimentary and they have happy hour every day. Overall, my room was clean but housekeeping was not replenishing everything they took out of my room. Any of my used towels that were not on the floor were taken but not all were replaced. I was not able to use the pool but I saw many kids playing in it during my stay. I can't say anything about the fitness center as I wasn't able to use it either due to my work schedule. If you are light sleeper, you will hear airplanes taking off at any time of the day even when at night.

Liza was apologetic for the issues in rm 103, and made sure rm 315 was move in ready when we got back from lunch. Came back a week later because we loved this place. But this time around the room not so much. Four of us stayed in room 103. Last week we stay upper floors and the room looked cleaner, fresher, etc.., The carpet in room 103 is a tripping hazard, old and ripped. We didn't want to change rooms because we were exhausted from a straight 8 hour drive. Only reason I have a 3 star instead of a 1 star is because the front desk ladies are fantastic. I heard it was gabbys last day. So at didn't get to see her. Probably on maternity leave. She was prego when at met her. Jaclyn was helpful as always. But Lauren was exceptional. Even after having a long day, and rough time with a previous guest before me, she still gave over the top service. Friendly, helpful, and talked to us more than guest, was more like we were friends. Will we come back? Sure we will but it'll have to be an upper floor better room not a tripping hazard. I'm with a couple senior citizens that nearly fell due to the carpet. I'll post a photo as soon as I can get some bright lights.

No coffee available anywhere on property unless you buy the full breakfast buffet, which doesn't open until 10:30. I arrived at 7:30 pm and it took 10 minutes until someone appeared to check me in. The pool has been drained, and there sounds like a family of frogs living in the stagnant water in the middle of the tarp.

The shower and tub had not been cleaned either. Besides the very basics not being cleaned, the walls,l and doors are super grimey and dirty. The property is also pretty dirty and run down.

I'd rather spend another 80 bucks and stay somewhere where I know they can at least wipe off a counter.
