Overall stay was fine, room service was good with friendly maids ( they spoke some English). Reasonable price. Easy access to restaurants and shopping. Their soap could be of better quality. Lot better than a Motel 6! But no breakfast or restaurant on site. Has a pool!

Check in staff was friendly but the room was dirty and in need of repairs. The floor was broken in several places, the toilet roll holder was broken, the mismatched furniture looked like it was pieced together from thrift shops. The bathroom was dirty with hairs in the tub and on the floor and I squashed at least 5 ants before I even used the toilet. For the same price, I switched to a different motel down the street that was clean and included breakfast.

Perfect for a few nights. Better than expected based on the price… and the other reviews. It was a clean room with a nice big TV and a working air conditioner, what more could you ask for! A fridge… and a microwave… that’s what more you could ask for, and they got it! Hospitality was great as well. Thanks for the stay!

My room had an amazingly comfortable mattress. I slept very well. The big problem for me was the terrible WiFi. I was staying in Palo Alto for business and needed WiFi with real bandwidth. The WiFi at this Hotel is simply insufficient.

Liked: Cleanliness
The motel was in an area with a lot of other hotels, so that was nice. The staff was nice and it was an easy check in and out. The stay was just for sleep while my sister was in the hospital. It was nice to have a fridge and a microwave in the room, but felt like the air couldn’t keep the room cool, and it was loud. I had read that the mattresses were creaky from other reviews, but didn’t expect them to be as loud as they were! Anytime anyone would move or get out of bed, it would wake the other person up. Lots of banging noises outside our room one of the nights, like they were fixing something at 9pm. We didn’t use the pool. It was about 10-15minutes to the Stanford Medical center.

My personal Experience

It was a one night stay.. very reasonable price. They give what they offer. Very quiet place to stay a rest very comfortable beds we stay in a to beds room. Really appreciate that they had microwave, fridge and coffee maker in the room. That help us out a lot with our daughter foods. FAN AND AC Unit worked really good..Really friendly people working in the front desk. Room it was clean.. It may have little older furniture and structures but do not interfere with a Good overall experience.. Fully Recommended.

I loved that the floors were not carpeted. It made the room feel cleaner. The bathroom fixtures were older, which I didn’t mind but I could have done without the cockroach I found in the bathroom. The area outside in front of our door smelled like pee. It looked clean though, I guess maybe it came from people, letting their dogs pee in a patch of dirt out front.
