My stay at SFO El Rancho Inn

The stay at SFO El Rancho Inn was enjoyable. The room was large, beds, comfortable, and clean. Only one issue was the toilet would not completely flush. The breakfast was great and very tasty. Better than others I have experiences. The hostess did a awesome job of preparation. I recommend giving this property a try in Millbrae. Lots of things to do and see in the area. As a silver member, received a free bottle of wine.

Worth the money

The hotel is very nice with a delicious daily breakfast. The bed very comfortable, safeway and trader joes, 1.5 blocks away. Walgreens and Baskin Robbins is as well. Our first night was a bit rough as there were drug and loud folks in the parking lot and kicking the stairwell gate. Plus no microwave.

Its Meh

For the money...meh. I did finally get used to the smell of the room. Not really saying the room smelled but it had a scent. Not a good one but it had one. Just seems like an old place. Front desk was excellent and probably the best part of the hotel.

Foul odor as soon as you open the door. Mattress very old. You can actually feel the springs. Coffee pot doesn’t work. You actually get water all over except for the cup. You can actually hear your neighbors snoring. Really needs to be updated.
