Reviews for Villa Montes Hotel

Review 1:My first time in San Francisco and I was looking for a hotel base close to the airport to get my bearings. Great facilities, lovely staff, helped me find local restaurants, local mall, taxi service to the door. I felt safe and well looked after.

Review 2:They're were ants in our first room. The second room's windows were wide open when we walked in making the room feel freezing.

Review 3:The proximity to the airport.

Review 4:Breakfast was typical chain hotel fare. It would have been nice to have locally baked croissants to go with the European decor.

Review 5:I booked this hotel at the last minute due to a delayed flight, and this was close to SFO. The hotel provides their own taxi service, which was very convenient. I had not been familiar with the Ascend Hotel Collection, so was very pleasantly surprised at how wonderful it was to stay there. With the antique style furnishings and gorgeous bedding, I felt like I was in a luxurious European hotel. Every detail seemed special. And it was extremely economical.

Review 6:Mattress was lopsided. The bathroom door wouldn't stay open. Plug for coffee pot was hard to access & required the pot to be moved to use.

Review 7:The decor was impressive. Breakfast was good

Review 8:Room was a little tight even for just one person. No bar or food service on property except for complimentary breakfast.

Review 9:Just needed an overnight stay close to the airport, and car rental facilities. Complimentary taxi provided by the property was very convenient.

Review 10:Needs to advise to get cab and have hotel pay on arrival. We wasted time looking for shuttle and were overcharged for cab to hotel

Review 11:Close to the airport, so handy for overnight stay. Within walking distance of restaurants. Comfortable and staff helpful.

Review 12:The electricity went off twice during our stay, tiny rooms, the bathroom door didn't stay open, you'd have to prop it up. No side table on one side the bed.

Review 13:Location to airport

Review 14:The only things to let the hotel down, was the breakfast. Would have been nice to have a cooked breakfast or more on the continental selections

Review 15:We have a lovely big suite, which even though overlooking the main road was very quiet. The Reception staff and cleaners where all very polite and helpful.

Review 16:My main problem was that the exercise room is quite poor, having no treadmills and poor equipment generally. To fulfill the claim of being a luxury place, they need to also fulfill this need of the clientele. I also think they should welcome early risers with coffee and fruit rather than opening the conversation with "there is no breakfast until 6:30". That's 9:30 on the east coast; a lot of travelers will need something earlier.

Review 17:I love the quality of the rooms. They are luxurious. They are also clean. The staff at the desk were friendly and capable.

Review 18:little bit out of the way, but Bart station only 15 min walk, so easy to get in to San Francisco, only $4.15. Would have been nice to have kettle with black teabags and proper milk available in room

Review 19:Wonderful hotel to come home to at night , extremely comfortable, little extras with computers on different floors with printers attached for printing boarding passes etc. Convenient for airport, with free shuttle service (10 min away)

Review 20:The room was a teensy bit stuffy.

Review 21:Friendly, helpful staff & the suite was lovely. The breakfast (included in price) was great and there is a complimentary taxi from the airport.

Review 22:We booked 5 nights based on the excellent reviews but left only after 2 nights. Bed was terrible. Felt like you were sleeping in a trough. Wash basin faucet was also terrible. Like washing up in the kitchen sink. Water splashed everywhere even when you had the flow very low. Single handle shower control was hard to use & wasted a lot of water. Parking spaces were very tight. Room was too small for the amount/type of furniture & was not practical.

Review 23:Staff was helpful & even offered to change our room but that might have only addressed the bed problem. Rooms were clean. Free WiFi was adequate. Breakfast was generous & varied. There was coffee, teas, milk & juices. Yogurt, apples, bananas, bagels, pastries, waffles & cereals.

Review 24:Breakfasts poor....hotel in airport flight path no jug for boiling hot water in room..packaged tea and coffee not worth drinking

Review 25:Hotels in San Francisco are very expensive. We decided to stay near the airport as this was more affordable. We are seniors so took advantage of San Franciscos almost free travel for seniors...one and two dollar rides on the cal train buses and trams. Well done San Francisco.

Review 26:The bed was way too soft for my taste, but it served the purpose.

Review 27:Location was just as described and it was taking us about 1/2 h to get to Fisherman's Wharf (on the weekend). The room was nicely furnished and it felt good. Staff was friendly and courteous. I would gladly stay at this hotel again.

Review 28:For a stop over close to the airport it was okay. For San Francisco it is too far away. At night you still here the traffic outside.

Review 29:We received an upgrade to our room. Ended up in a nice suite. Awesome! At breakfast they had a waffle maker, which was nice, otherwise rather basic breakfast.

Review 30:Quite a long way from the city, reached by a 25 minute metro ride. The station is a good 20 minute walk away.

Review 31:Close to airport with a free taxi transfer. Friendly boutique hotel

Review 32:Friendly staff, great location to airport and easy access to SAn Francisco with rental car. Complimentary taxi pick up and drop off at airport. Rooms were very quiet considering so close to airport.

Review 33:Location, location, location. Wine and cookies at night. Great breakfast. Wonderful spa. Recommendations and knowledge of staff to surrounding area restaurants and banks. Room and bed comfort.

Review 34:Wall to wall carpet looked dirty. A used T-shirt of one of the guest before us were on the floor in a hidden place (cleaning effectivity is questionable). Unfriendly personnel.

Review 35:Eelegant interieur, big room for breakfast (this is not the case everywhere in the US)

Review 36:It's close to SFO so you can still hear the noise of flights flying over the hotel. It's quite disturbing. Also the air conditioning was a problem for me. The air from the vent directly went directly toward the bed so it's very uncomfortable. But the room was too hot without air conditioning so I still have to leave it on.

Review 37:Close to SFO, good location if you need to catch a early flight as I did. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

Review 38:The Villa Montes is perfect for any layovers you may have in San Francisco. They provide a shuttle to and from the airport, their rooms are a bigger size than the usual in SF, there is a small refrig and a microwave as well as a safe, and free wi-fi. The location is close to the airport. We did not stay more than one day (June 10th and on June 28th) but we enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was decent and their area quite large and comfortable. We will definitely be back!

Review 39:Free, indoor parking. Very quiet rooms. Well appointed and complete. Nice workout room with a great top-floor, outside deck. Nice hot tub and small pool.

Review 40:The room was spacious and awesome, and the hotel is very easy to get to. We had a rental car and got here in 15 minutes from San Francisco. Didn't get there for San Bruno, but for San Francisco and really was a great choice. Comparing the prices to those in SF, this is certainly an amazing fit.

Review 41:The decor in the room is gaudy, almost creepy. I wish they could make the rooms homier.

Review 42:The staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is good if flying to and from SFO airport. An iHop next door satisfies food cravings. Bed is very comfortable.

Review 43:not really near anything. Can walk to BART and shopping mall, which is ok to kill a few hours.

Review 44:quiet and small hotel near the airport. Taxi back to airport thrown in, which was great at 5.30am. Not full of tour groups!

Review 45:Nothing really negative.

Review 46:If you need a hotel near the airport in SF this is great. Very clean and comfortable with friendly staff. The breakfast was decent. The overall value was very good.

Review 47:The beds were slanted which made sleeping uncomfortable (need to be fixed). The coffee is too watery and tasted horrible. Breakfast is nothing special but amply provided.

Review 48:We really liked the cleanliness and quietness of the hotel, the large rooms, wonderful staff, and ideal location. Fawn, the front desk person, is wonderful and very accommodating- we were impressed!

Review 49:The hotel is close to the airport, but quiet. A well appointed room with a pleasant staff at the front desk. Wine in the lobby in the evening and a good breakfast makes this hotel a must stay.

Review 50:everything was great from the reception staff at check in to the breakfast and checkout.

Review 51:Its in a great location near to the airport, so great for an overnight stay. Great spa pool to help relax from the flights

Review 52:Breakfast was pretty basic . Rooms carpets need remodeling ... My room's carpet was wrinkled and must be replaced . Air condition was very noisy. Even though I had a back room, it was still noisy .

Review 53:Very close to SFO airport . Few restsurants and shopping center close by. Good for one night stay. Large rooms and friendly staff .

Review 54:They only issue was some construction going on in the hotel. A little noisy, but at least they are keeping things update and in good working order.

Review 55:The rooms are very comfortable and breakfast is included. You are very close to major transportation and the airport. Great place to stay!

Review 56:The only reason I would not give this hotel a superlative rating is to keep it to myself. Recently I had not made reservations in time and ended up staying, regretfully, elsewhere. While they do not have a restaurant, per se, San Mateo Avenue is a 5 minute walk with many restaurants. I would recommend it over any hotel on the Peninsula, except on the occasions I want to stay there.

Review 57:service is perfect. Taylor who works at front desk helped.us a lot. he is so grntle and professional. In the morning , we forget our bag at front desk. and the hotel pay the taxi fee. so nice. highly recomman.

Review 58:I honestly can't think of a thing id change. Maybe that I wish the hot tub was open 24hrs lol but they even offered to keep it open an hr or so later for us if we wanted. Otherwise its open till 10I believe, which is normal so NO COMPLAINTS and that's rare

Review 59:The place is beautiful. Every detail of that place is updated and gorgeous. Makes every other hotel Ive been to look shabby lol. They put an extra touch into alot of things. Close to the airport but didn't notice and serious noise from planes or street. They even upgraded our room for free upon arrival. And FREE convenient parking. Dont know if I have anything bad to say

Review 60:The walls between units are not at all soundproof and our neighbors were very loud until we knocked on the wall. Also, lots of traffic noise at the front of the hotel kept us awake for awhile.

Review 61:Very fun décor in the room, nice comfy beds, beautiful interior of the hotel and pleasant staff.

Review 62:The fact that it was our last night in San Francisco. If not, we certainly book another night at tha place!

Review 63:Everything! Comfort, quiet, clean, frendly and professional staff, spa! Thanks!!!

Review 64:A bit noisy, El Camino Real is a very busy street and you are pretty close to the airport. But...I will be back.

Review 65:Th inn keeper was a great guy, friendly and helpful. Had a nice glass of Napa Cab. The room was large and had new plumbing, and it was clean. Nice big bed. Parking worked out good, near the elevator. Super Hot Tub! OK self service breakfast with Starbucks Coffee.

Review 66:Not a nice view of furniture store on main street.

Review 67:Loved the character of the hotel, close to airport, great helpful staff, nice touch with complimentary glass of wine.

Review 68:Nothing!

Review 69:The rooms were beautiful the whole place was really nice! We were staying here for a weekend soccer tournament, after the first day some of the players came to our room for some pizza and we had a great time and the staff was friendly and courteous to all of us which was very Cool! We will stay here again! James M.

Review 70:Next time I would request a room in back of the hotel to avoid the traffic noise.

Review 71:The room was very nicely appointed. Nice comfortable chairs and sofa. Everything was spotless! I'd say it was one of the nicest hotels at which we have stayed. Nice bathroom with good appointments.

Review 72:Very friendly, helpful staff. Well maintained and very clean. Quiet and inviting atmosphere. Great spa. Nice breakfast. Free shuttle to airport - or free parking. Close to BART for going into the city.

Review 73:The air conditioner/heater located above the bed on the right side of the bed. Air was directed at the bed.

Review 74:All was well with the exception of the air conditioner located above the bed.

Review 75:The cleaning lady came only in the afternoon when we were already back from town so we asked her not to clean the room. Would be better if the room cleaning was done in the morning

Review 76:We had to catch an early flight the next day. This place is only 7 min. drive from the airport. For touring - it takes about 35 min. drive to the city which is also ok (during the weekend!).

Review 77:If my husband and I could give this stay 10 stars we would. Every one was so nice and helpful. Its not far from downtown San Francisco and using uber or lyft its very easy to get to. It was so quiet and the rooms were so clean. My husband and I do workout and the fitness room needs a little work but that's the only down fall... We will definitely be back!!!!!!

Review 78:can't think of anything at all!

Review 79:Friendly and helpful staff large bedrooms very comfortable bed large bathroom pool and sauna beautifully decorated underground free car parking location great - good restaurants nearby near airport and free transfer

Review 80:Parking lot has insufficient space when hotel is full. Breakfast was a bit light. More choices would have been nice.

Review 81:Brand new hotel. Very convenient to the airport. Very clean, quiet and comfortable. Easy to get to.

Review 82:The hotel is just a short cab ride away from SFO. They offer a free pick up / drop off. On arrival just call and a cab is sent. BART is about a 15 to 30 minutes walk away, depends if you are a power walker or take it more easy. Including the train, consider about an hour to be at the ferry building in SF. Worked perfect for me. Arrived lunch time and managed to spend the rest of the day at the wharf before heading back to the hotel, having a good rest before catching the flight early next morning.

Review 83:Internet a little slow, but so what. We were on vacation.

Review 84:Comfortable boutique hotel extremely close to San Francisco Airport. Well appointed room, nicely decorated and very quiet- even with air traffic. We would definitely use this hotel again.

Review 85:The length of beds seemed shorter than a normal sized bed. I am very short, and it bothered me a little bit, I cannot imagine a taller person sleeping comfortably in one!

Review 86:Loved this hotel!! Very nice and interesting decor, wonderful staff! It was very clean, and the breakfast was pretty good. Parking was easy. Very close to airport, also!

Review 87:The suite did not have any glasses or utensils. Also, air conditioning in living room, but no vent in bedroom.

Review 88:We had a suite and it was spacious. The bed was very comfortable. Even though close the airport, we were not bothered by the noise as long as the windows were closed.

Review 89:Close to the SFO airport, hotel car park, ultra helpful and friendly staff, and a clean and stylish hotel made our overnight stay here far too short. Anya, at reception, gave us five minutes advice to be tourists for a day in San Francisco and this was a perfect extra.

Review 90:You can hear noise from other rooms and from the street.

Review 91:Staff was friendly and the room was clean. Location is perfect if you you have an early flight, as it take less the 30 min to reach the airport.
