I slept really well. Shared a room with a fellow conference attendee, which made it more affordable. Our room was at the back, second floor, so no traffic noise. Two queen beds of reasonable quality. Fresh sheets, loads of pillows. Not bad at all. The room is equipped with a fridge, microwave and coffee maker. There was a supply of... More

In most cases, the hotel is better than average but not very good so had to give 3s rather than 4s (hotel deserves 3.5 in most cases). As others have observed, this is a good choice for the budget conscientious traveler to Palo Alto. Its location, depending upon your intended destination, is decent and its surrounding area is okay.

We stayed here on a week night. Upon check-in, the clerk was not very friendly, As my husband stated later, we interupted his television show. Our room was on the ground floor and about half way down. We could hear the street traffic from within our room. The room was clean and had been updated w/a large flatscreen t.v., and... More

If you need a place to stay in Palo Alto, this little inn is comfortable and clean. It's not fancy, but for the money you get a good night's sleep. Everything is expensive around here and this inn was within our price range. We did not hear street noise and that is high on our priority level, as well as... More

Mostly updated room, flat screen tv, bed soft, several pillows, excellent breakfast. We've had to stay in this area several times over the last 2 years and this was definitely good for the price. If you need to go to Stanford, then this is a good place to stay. We hadn't gotten reservations in advance, as I recalled lots of... More

Stayed at this motel 3 or 4 years ago and it was ok. In November 2011 stayed here again and found it to be refurbished and much to my wife's liking. Clean modern rooms and friendly staff. Will stay here again. More

Very clean room, everything looks recently updated (not including the CRT TV). The included breakfast was nice for the price. I stayed here while on an interview at Stanford, the distance is 4 miles (which is great if you have your own car, but comes up to $15+tip by cab each way). My room was on the second floor somewhat... More

It's a bed that is fairly comfortable. It's a breakfast that is edible. It was inexpensive and got the job done. More

My experience was similar to other reviewers. I wish I had read them first. It was subpar for the neighborhood. When we found a stained sheet, the manager handed us a new sheet and started to walk away, saying he was too busy to help. Later, and late that night, we found suspicious hairs on the fitted sheet. It was... More

Could be better maintained. With the door locked and double locked you could see around it to the outside. Furniture and TV were old and outdated. Breakfast was terrible primarily due to lack of decent seating and cold breakfast foods. Desk personnel were average but housekeeping seemed to do a good job . More
