Studios Inn

Kitchen, laundry, snacks machine are all there, very convenient. i like the big fridge in the room. Safe and quiet place to stay there.

Our room was very clean and enjoyed our stay! Communication was okay. Staff was friendly and relaxed but their communication not too great. Take note that their front desk is by appointment only on Sundays. If you are checking in or out on a Sunday, let them know ahead of time.

When we checked-in we mentioned we had requested a reserved parking space in their parking lot. But when we checked in at 5:45 pm they said the parking lot was full but that a spot should open the next day or so. So we parked on the street. We were pleased by the next day a parking spot ($5/day) became available with a garage door opener device for the security gate. We liked the location of our room (#204) as it was on the second story on the west side catching the afternoon sun through the window and had privacy with an abundance of trees at the window line. Bear in mind these are studios which have a small 2-burner electric cooktop, microwave, medium size refrigerator & small single serve coffee maker. There is no oven or dishwasher in room. The studio is very tight for a couple. The fridge is short (approx. 48 inches tall) and the door opens on opposite side of kitchen which should be modified depending on the room layout. (However, the fridge is well designed space-wise inside & holds a large amount of food). Although there is no oven there is a community kitchen on third floor available with full size oven. The mattress is a little firmer/harder than most hotels. The bathroom is spatious with ample cabinet/storage space. The place seems very well maintained. I didn’t see any stains on the hallway/lobby carpet or knicks or scuff marks on the walls or torn furniture as you often see in most hotel chains. The cookware was in good condition (no scratches on Teflon pans or chipped glassware). This is a sign of good mgmt that keeps on top of things. Bear in mind this is a bare bones kitchen. A few items that would have been helpful: S/P shakers, scissors, salad tongs, pasta spoon, potato peeler, potato masher, rubber spatula, measuring cups/spoons, dish rags/towels, a toaster that a slice of bread fits in (the one in room is designed for square/small slices of bread) & a couple extra plastic trash bags. Provided: colander, sharp chefs knife, plastic cutting board, wine corker, hand held can opener, non stick cookware (fry/sauté pan lg. & small, 2 qt. sauce pan), 3 teflon spatulas, dinner & luncheon plates, utinsels, coffee cups, drinking glasses. They also have a cute mini dish drying rack. The front office staff is very eager to please if you need anything (for example I needed a plastic ladle for some soup I cooked from scratch and I requested a better can opener as the one in the room was too hard to use). They graciously met my requests & provided the requested items with a smile. There is a small exercise room w/stationery bike, elliptical, treadmill, weight machine & several dumbbells. There are two laundry rooms, also. Complimentary coffee is provided in lobby every morning next to ice machine. Regarding the exercise room, one negative was that the stationary bicycle was not working properly (the resistance setting would disengage after 30 seconds). My husband mentioned it and a staff member tried to fix it but could not. We w

Both my wife and myself were very pleased the way we were received at the reception desk. The staff are very informative and we’re able to answer any question regarding places to visit, in particular when we asked them the best route to travel back to SFO international airport and when I told them we were leaving around7 AMthey told me that the traffic on the 101 is very very busy and should probably ad on an hour to travel there, and they were correct. Overall it was a pleasant stay and a short walking distance to Santana Row which is a must see with all the excellent restaurants with a very nice atmosphere and there is a very nice mall close by.

Excellent place with low cost. You have to get your head around the fact that it is not a hotel. It’s typical business is short stays of weeks and months. You are on your own for room cleaning, there are no fresh towels or room supplies. You take out your own garbage. You can pay a bit extra at the end to have them clean the room or do it yourself. They put a few rooms on *******, probably to fill the place. However you get a suite with a kitchenette, dishes etc. Loved how close it was to Santana Row without breaking the bank.

This was a 1 week stay. The only issue we had with the room was that the tv was small. Upon checking out, you have to take all of the trash out and wash any dishes that you dirty. The parking was $5 a night but it is secured behind an iron gate. Free coffee was available 24 hours a day in the lobby area. There is a very nice and large shopping mall just up the road from the Inn. Overall, it was a pleasant 1 week stay at the Studios Inn!

We stayed for a week. Generally good experience. There is a coffee machine at the lobby. Parking is in the secured garage. The only downside is that AC might be a little loud during the night. But overall we are glad that we booked the place.

Great staff Clean and safe Amazing location Very recommended Booked another stay here

Walking distance to shopping and restaurants was good. The property was tired / old.
