Bay Landing San Francisco Airport Hotel
clean room. Bed was firm. Would have liked an option for a topper to make it softer. I think all hotels should not only have rooms with different bed sizes such as queen, king but also have options of firm, medium or soft. Or offer a topper to alter the firmness.

The Westin San Francisco Airport
Website should specify that connecting rooms are only for 1 king bed and 2 double beds. Not 2 double bed rooms. Parking on site is very expensive!
