Kasa Niche Hotel Redwood City

The location was amazing, in the middle of downtown Redwood City. The room (I stayed in a junior suite) was one of those tiny but very efficiently laid out units. I enjoyed my stay, with a few caveats. 1) The miniature desk was just too small and the chair too uncomfortable for work. I ended up working from bed––ok for a few hours, but not an extended business trip. 2) The fridge was TOO LOUD. This seems to be a consistent problem with both Kasa locations I stayed at, and my sleep quality tends to be worse at Kasa than anywhere else I stayed. 3) The shades are not blackout. I appreciated the eyemask though. Overall, the location couldn't have been better, and it's always nice to stay at a brand new hotel, but I won't return expecting a restful stay and certainly not if I am traveling with somebody else--there was just barely enough room for one person.

I love the little junior room! It is very clean and cozy. The room is equipped with a Chromecast TV that enabled me to stream movies and YouTube videos from my personal devices during the stay. The virtual front desk check-in and check-out was very smooth. I felt very happy to have received personalized welcome notes from the Kasa team upon my arrival. There are many great restaurants and cafes around the hotel, and it is located in a lively and safe neighborhood. I’ve stayed here multiple times and would love to visit again.
