Travelodge by Wyndham San Francisco Airport North
Yes, the room was very clean that even my wife made mention of it. The staff were friendly. This was my first time staying at Travelodge so we were a bit surprised that it didn't come with a mini fridge nor microwave. But, other than that it was good, and for the price you can't beat it.
