    tô be honest.... Just the fact that it was located between bay are and San Francisco Being located right at El Camino there was a lot of noise as at any time of the day or night there is some idiot with his tuned up car or motorcycle. But also every bit of noise from the room above was heard - Every single step! I had wax earplugs and noise cancelling headphones on top and was still woken up constantly. The room also smelt of cigarette smoke, half used soap in the shower etc...

    Check in and parking was easy. We asked for extra pillows but never got them. The window opened, which is a plus for fresh air (it was in March) and the road noise did quiet down at night. Water took a long time to get hot but it did. Fridge and microwave but no coffee in the room, and no breakfast at all. Thin towels. Bottom sheet did not reach the foot of the King bed. Top cover was nice. Small shower stall with soap and shampoo provided.

    NOTHING WENT WELL! The room was terrible! As soon as we opened the door we were hit with an overwhelming odor of Clorox. We opened all the windows to air it out but none of the windows had screens on them so we closed them to avoid having a room full of insects. We slept with the odor through the night. The bathroom walls were peeling paint from everywhere due to a huge past roof leak. We stayed only one of the two nights we paid for...it was that bad!!! When we were leaving, a large man fell from the stairs next to our room, we personally told the manager to come and assist, she said she would... but never did. I helped the man to his feet and to his car. I went upstairs and brought down his luggage and personal effects and sent him on his way. Still no manager, no 911 call, no nothing! No coffer maker either! Really? We proceeded to leave as fast as we could to get to the Stanford Hospital to receive a procedure I had scheduled for the day. I am a 68 year old man, who has worked in construction all my life and this is what I thought of the accommodations. There is not enough room in a 100 page notebook that could hold the summation of my wife's criticism of our stay at this Motel. My thoughts...stir clear!

    2 day stay, first day had no hot water in the morning to shower. 2nd after I checked out I had a need to stay one more day, requested a lower level room to accommodate a medical need, (person was not to climb stairs post surgery), they were unable to accommodate the request. We requested a a couple extra pillows, to support the person in medical need, was told yes but they never returned with them, when I tried to reach out to the check-in counter there was no one available, had to make due by rolling up the blanket for support. Room was noisy, but expected since it faced the main street. reservation for 2 adults but only had one chair to sit.

    Unbelievably poor experience and management. I was asked to leave after twice reporting what I believe was a pervasive mildew odor that was untenable. Manager/Owners didn’t bother to come up and review/remedy the concern (a health hazard) and refused to accommodate another room in what appeared to be an otherwise (than me) unoccupied property, which they lied about. Substandard lodgings. Beware.

    It was a very hot day when I arrived at the Budge in 1 1/2 hour before check-in. I had hoped I could check in early but was told that even though the room was ready, I would need to pay a $10.00 early check in fee. I decided against paying the early check in fee and instead used the money on something to eat at a restaurant across the street while waiting for check-in time. It was an unpleasant experience since I have stayed at several other hotel/motels in Redwood City where I have been able to, not only check-in early many times, but also never been asked to pay an early check-in fee. That, along with another negative experience, made it a not-so-pleasant stay.

    Quality / safety of the building itself was old, in poor repair, and dangerous. Electrical outlets & appliances in the rooms are in disrepair & dangerous. Building itself is judged to be ' sick ' with no ventilation & probably not up to code. Believe the cleaning staff have done an adequate job of daily cleanliness, but it doesn't make up for the lack of proper quality that remains. Sorry, won't be back under any circumstances.
