Redwood Creek Inn

The room itself isn’t too bad. It’s your average motel… TV, phone, desk, bed, sink, cheap coffee maker, microwave & mini-​refrigerator. There are two very thin towels in the room, so if you plan on taking more than 1 shower, you may want to ask for more towels. The TV isn’t bad, but there is no channel guide or anything — you just keep scrolling until you find a channel that works, which is hard to come by. While typing this, I thought I would check to see if there was a channel guide inside the other nightstand… nope…just a «The Teaching of Buddha» book… so…if you’re into Buddhism… there ya go!
I gave it two stars, because when I called to ask if there were any vacancies this evening, they gave me a quote of $ 149 + tax (for a single bed — just myself), which was fine. When I got there, he said «OK, $ 159 + tax»…I told him that’s not what he told me on the phone, and he thought arguing with me about it was better. Anyway, it is just a $ 10 difference, but it was irritating.
I guess I would stay here again if all the other places were taken. The room is clean.

Very, very clean. That being said, the bed was only passable and on the verge of being uncomfortable. If the towels were any thinner, they would have been transparent and there were only 2 of each type (bath, face and washcloth).
The worst thing was the poor internet speed and the bad cable-​tv offered. Too few channels and no movie channels.

Small room but very clean and right across the street from whole foods.

I don’t normally write reviews but this hotel is special to us. Friendly, flexible and clean and conveniently located. We recently had surgery at Stanford and chose this hotel to stay with both before and after our appointments. Thanks to Dillip and his team! Would definitely stay again and recommend to our friends.

I’m giving this place 5 stars cuz I forgot where I had my purse last and ding ding ding left it here in the room I stayed at. Immediately called the front desk asked if they had found my purse and they did. Went their where I had to describe the purse and they handed it to me. I know not all places would do this so I am grateful!

I NEVER review things, but felt that given how iffy Redwood City can be that I would give my opinion. We stayed for one night for a reunion and needed to be close to downtown RWC so we could walk. The motel is small and dated, probably built in the 70s. The room was small (enough space for a queen bed, dresser, desk, tv, nightstands) but I was immediately impressed by how CLEAN it was! No old smells or that air of vintage cigarette smoke. I have stayed in many hotels over the years — 4 seasons, the ritz, marriotts, embassy suites, hyatts… This room was as clean as the best of them. For me, I know that for $ 99 the hotel is not the ritz. If it’s clean, however, we are in!
We walked to downtown and back, no problem. Across the street is Starbucks and a burger place so it’s all very convenient. There was free continental breakfast that we didn’t try, FYI. I hope this helps you fellow travelers.

The rooms are clean, the grounds are well cared for, and the price is fair. The only way to ruin your stay is with poor business practices, which is of course a deal breaker. We paid one rate on Monday and had to wait for a deposit to clear to pay for two more nights. When we went back in the morning to pay the additional two nights the manager wanted $ 35.00 more per night. Naturally we passed on his ripoff scheme and found another hotel.

Excellent value! This little hotel is expensive but not for this area. It was clean, comfortable, attractive, and the staff people were very pleasant and accommodating. The website didn’t say so but breakfast is served in the lobby. We didn’t eat there. There is a Whole Foods across the street and Sequoia Station across El Camino Real. We would definitely stay here again!

Apparently, the bank suspended my card due to suspicious activity on the day of my arrival, so they cancelled my reservation. I get that. My problem was that nobody called me about it. After driving 8 straight hours, I arrived and found that I had no room. I had to find a similar hotel that was 45 minutes away (in morning traffic) and double the price.

No problems at all. Great location, great room and a great price. Whole foods next door and plenty of restaurants, bars and movie theater across the street within a 5 min walk, not to mention cal train for easy stress free ride into San Francisco. Definitely added to my list of places I will stay when im in the area.
Keep up the good work.

I like the place very much. Nice people neat rooms, good service, I feel like my home moreover wifi with good speed and complimentary breakfast

Best choice in best price with good service they are providing microwave, refrigerator, 32 inch led tv with plenty of channels, free wifi with good speed, it’s very near to safe way and whole foods just 2 min walk .I like the motel very much

My favorite business hotel for travel to Redwood City. It’s very clean, quiet & well maintained. Located in a convenient area of Redwood City. Close to major corporations (for work), walk to the train station in a few minutes. Walk to the gym in 7 minutes (with $ 5 pass from front desk). Nice, clean pool. Very close to great food (next door to WHOLE FOODS!) and restaurants. The manager and his wife are extremely nice and accommodative. Business travel is a chore but not here. :)

Horrible customer service. Both the lady last night and The guy this morning were very rude. I asked for an copy of the receipt and the guy acted as if it was a huge problem and gave me attitude. Strongly discourage anyone to go there. Not to mention the rooms smelled and office as well. Do not go.

This motel is everything one needs for a business trip or an inexpensive vacation. It was clean; the staff was friendly; and it was located near shopping and business centers.

Great!!! Way total super clean rooms. I left my lisence at the front desk upon checking in, the manager tracked me down, and got it back to me right away. The towels are a bit skimpy. The rooms have very nice basic amenities, there is even a pool there. I’d reccomend staying here if you want a great, basic, cheap, clean room.

Just don’t do it. Go anywhere else. For the following reasons:
Ten minutes into walking into our room, we unplugged the hotel’s hair dryer and plugged in a curling iron (not yet turned on) which led to the power going out to half of our room, including the heater and the bathroom light. We called to have it resolved. At some point, I used the bathroom (in the dark) and flushed the toilet, at which point my companions said the lights in the room flickered.
Five hours later, we returned to our room to find the heater and lights working. Only to have the heater and the previously working half of the room stop working five minutes later. The hotel could not resolve the issue and we spent the night freezing since they would only give us one extra blanket for four people and two beds.
When we checked out and asked for a partial refund since we had such a hard time sleeping in the cold, the tv didn’t work and half the power was out for our entire stay, we were denied for the following reasons:
1. We shouldn’t have tried to turn on THEIR hair dryer. Rebuttal: Ummm, excuse me?
2. They spent $ 200+ to have someone come in to replace a fuse. Rebuttal: The fuse was one of the old tube types which means they haven’t updated their electrical work since it was built. And replacing fuses is part of building maintenance.
3. And we got a «good» deal on the room. Rebuttal: Our friends stayed at the Sofitel the same night for $ 10 cheaper at a much better quality hotel.
Since management would not budge and actually blamed US for causing the power outage in the room, I feel the review score is justified.

Omg. WE were at Whole Foods in Redwood city to carb up one last time before we did our Christmas dieting and we decided to stay in Redwood city as we were heading to ‘the City” (San Francisco for you civilians out of the area. «the City» is the local’s «Non de Plume» anyway, we googled and ended up at a Sketchy place with the rent by the week people and their shopping carts outside sitting on boxes chain smoking and decided that’s just not us. I went to
and it had this place listed right across the street from Whole foods and we went in. We had a VERY sweet deal for $ 133.00
We didn’t use the pool, but they had just remodeled and were putting new headboards on as we were checking in. it’s not the Ritz but it was Clean, Very Very clean, Quiet. We never heard a sound. The shower pressure was good, continental breakfast and the mattress seemed new as well. We slept like babies. Safe and sound and very affordable. a microwave, mini fridge, and an iron.

The staff are very helpful and friendly. They let me check in two and a half hours early to prepare for a business meeting and later in the day asked me how it went. Free breakfast. Free wifi. Great customer service. Convenient to the train and an easy cab ride from the airport.

Pros:
Very clean
Fridge
Dvd player
Free Parking
Free internet
Pool
Price
Location
Cons:
The «continental breakfast» is pretty slim. I recommend going to Whole Foods or Safeway which are in walking distance and getting breakfast for the next morning.
The pool is FUH-​REEZING! So cold. Wish so badly that it was heated.
