The hotel is overpriced. It is quite clean. The bed was too short for me. I don't recommend scrambled eggs for breakfast - salty.

We stayed there for nine days, and we were very satisfied. The room was very nice and clean, and the bed is comfortable. I appreciated some amenities like the comfortable desk chair, and the lamp that are able to adjust brightness. The location is near the airport, about a 5-10 minute drive. And there are plenty of restaurants and grocery stores near by.

The room is big and clean. Thank you to the front desk for booking a taxi for us to the airport in the early morning. It was a great experience!

Very good experience. Close to the airport, breakfast is provided, and there are gas stations, Chinese restaurants, McDonald's, and Safeway nearby, which is very convenient.

Stayed here for one night prior to going to SFO the next day. People at the check in desk were very nice. The breakfast was surprisingly diverse and good for a small hotel (waffle maker, 6 choices of dry cereal, scrambled eggs, bacon, hard boiled eggs, steamed rice, breads and muffins, and juices, coffee and teas). Room and bathroom were immaculate. As clean as we have ever seen any hotel room. Fireplace in the room but it wasn't chilly enough for us to use it. Towels were softer than average. Bed was comfortable, not like a mattress worn to one side. Pillows didn't collapse as much as most hotels. Small microwave and fridge in the room (see pic). Only downside would be if you want to spend more than 1-2 days in the room, due to lack of drawer and closet space (see pic). Liked the separate recycling bin. We would absolutely stay here next time we need to be near SFO. Can't imagine a better place for the price.
Response from Property: Dear guest, It is always wonderful to be considered a gem by SFO, and we sincerely appreciate your kind words and generosity with the rating - thank you very much! At The Millwood, we strive to exceed our guests' expectations of comfort, convenience, and quality accommodations/amenities; it's humbling and gratifying that you have the time to go into so much detail to demonstrate how happy you were with our comfortable accommodations, convenient room amenities, high cleanliness standards, varied breakfast selection, and pleasant front desk staff. Your positive comments set the tone for excellence in everything we do, and your 5-star review motivates us to keep striving to provide exceptional products/services for the satisfaction and enjoyment of our valued guests. We appreciate your feedback about the drawer and closet space. Kindly note that our rooms feature compact closets, which may not have been obvious. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and would like to mention that our front desk team is always around to make your stay as comfortable as possible, so please don't hesitate to reach out if you need assistance with anything during your stay. We are delighted to read we remain your accommodation of choice here for future visits, and we eagerly anticipate your return for another rewarding experience. Thanks again for staying with us on this journey and providing valuable insights into your stay. We are grateful for both. Safe travels! Kind Regards, Vijay Patel General Manager

Our room was very clean and comfortable. Nice sheets, quiet, and dark for sleeping. We chose it because it was close to the airport and we had an early morning departure. It worked perfectly for this, but was also close to nice restaurants for our evening meal.
Response from Property: Dear Joanne, We're thrilled to hear about your wonderful experience at The Millwood! It's music to our ears that you found your room clean, comfortable, and perfect for a restful night's sleep. We take pride in providing a peaceful haven for our guests. We're delighted that our location not only served your airport needs but also allowed you to enjoy some of the excellent local dining options. It's always our goal to offer convenience without compromising on comfort or experience. Thank you for choosing The Millwood for your stay. We hope to welcome you back soon. Kind Regards, Vijay Patel General Manager

Disappointing stay. I really wanted to like this hotel and never write negative reviews. My teenage daughter and I traveled across the country and arrived at The Millwood after a very long travel day that started at 3 am. We arrived around 2 pm and couldn't wait to settle in and get some rest. We walked into the office to check in, and the lady at the desk gave us a very surprised look. I stated that I wanted to check in for our reservation, and she said that check-in is not until 3. She informed us that our room was ready, but if we wanted to check in an hour early, it would be an extra $25 fee. She said that if I didn't want to pay the extra fee, we could sit in the office with our stuff until 3 pm. She said this was their policy. I acted surprised by this and said I was unaware of the policy, and she replied in a pretty negative tone that I had booked through a 3rd party system (we booked on credit card points), which I guess was the reason we didn't know about the policy. So I had to pay the fee. I travel very frequently and have never had a hotel give me a problem checking in a little early if our room was ready. We will go back to our usual San Francisco hotels in the future to avoid this issue. You'd think a hotel so close to the airport could show a little compassion to weary travelers.
Response from Property: Dear guest, It's noticeable that our hotel policy regarding early check-in has upset you, and we are sorry for the dissatisfaction our early check-in fee caused you. While early check-in is not a guarantee, we try our best to accommodate our guests for this service and are pleased to provide this service for a small fee. It's regrettable that you were not aware of this fee prior to checking in; however, this is fairly standard in hotels across the US. We generally receive numerous compliments for our professional, friendly, and helpful staff, so we apologize if our front desk personnel failed to demonstrate the high standard of courtesy we expect of our team. Your interaction with our staff should always be pleasant, so we will be sure to share your comments with the concerned staff member as a reminder about the finer aspects of hospitality. Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention. We are committed to providing the best services to our guests, and your feedback helps us in that effort. We are saddened to read you feel you won't stay with us again. We would love for you to experience the top-notch stay that the vast majority of our guests do, and we earnestly hope you'll reconsider your decision and give us another chance to host you more successfully in the future. Thank you for choosing to stay with us while in the area. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve you and your daughter. Kind Regards, Vijay Patel General Manager

We stayed here the night before a flight out of SFO. It is convenient to the airport yet very quiet. Our room was extremely clean with great amenities - plenty of toiletries, coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator. A delicious full breakfast was included. We would definitely stay here again!!

We just stayed there in the large suite with a king bed in one room, two double beds in the other. We absolutely loved our stay and how the place looked like the pictures. We actually stayed an extra night because hadn't spent much time in the room. There were plenty of outlets, towels, and everything else we needed. They supply shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion, shower caps, optional rain shower. There is a TV in each room with great channel selection, an electric fireplace, lights everywhere, wall outlets, outlets in the lamps and phones. There is a mini fridge and microwave. They also do a breakfast with eggs, delicious bacon, waffles, oatmeal, cereal, bagels, juices, milk. They include parking. It is the only place I will stay from now on.
Response from Property: Dear guest, We thoroughly enjoyed reading about your recent visit, and your 5-star review made our day! Thank you for taking the time to go into so much detail to demonstrate how happy you were with your stay at The Millwood.

Very clean. Rooms are very nice. Very boutique feel from the lobby to the little courtyard where we ate breakfast. Just perfect! The roses that are everywhere smell soooo nice. There is a species rose (or wild rose without the hybridization) in the courtyard which smells amazing. My wife and I loved this place ❤️ 💕 💖
