Grumpy clerk
Great check in. Room was in order. All clean. Morning Noise from courtyard below beginning at 8:15 AM. ENDED any chance of sleep after a late night. Checkout was efficient. But check out clerk was grumpy and lacked cordiality. Totally the opposite from check in.

This was my second time staying here. Before I had gotten a ground floor room which had a lot of noise from above. This time I called ahead to ask for an upper floor room and they gave me a room in the third floor of the tower building. It was great! Super quiet, lovely balcony. Spotlessly clean. I was able to charge my car this time too. Overall a great place to stay, I highly recommend it.

We were in Palo Alto for my dad’s surgery at Stanford Hospital. The hotel was convenient and had everything we needed for our stay. The room was quiet and clean, there was a small continental breakfast in the morning, and parking was easy. We felt the hotel was central enough to Palo Alto as well.

Disliked: Amenities
Okay. To start this I want to say the staff is very friendly; however, we had to wait almost 2 hours after check in to get our room which is not pleasant being as it is about 250 a night plus resort fees. The room was not really insulated and we had to keep our window blocked because our room window was right next to another persons front door. I don’t think it is worth the money spent. The pots and pans are not provided unless you ask for them due to theft and the breakfast consists of pastry’s and some juice and cereal. Again, I have stayed at hotels and spent a lot less for actual breakfast availability. All in all, it was a okay stay but won’t be going back if I had to be in the area. The staff were superb though!
