Kathryn, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean and Comfortable.

My family and I stayed here for a medical trip to Stanford University. Overall the hotel was clean. Breakfast was a little meh, but it was free so I’m not complaining. Staff is super friendly and helpful, they did a good job at making my family and my stay as comfortable as possible. There are quite a few food choices around, with Wendy’s being right next door and Harry’s Hofbrau across the street. The area is a little run down and older but we felt safe inside the hotel. If we had to again we would stay again.
Steve, 3-night trip

Becky Anne, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Just ok, noisy

The room was fine. It is located on a major street and unfortunately I had a room closest to the street (likely because I booked through a 3rd party). The street noise was quite loud, even using a white noise app. Was difficult to sleep.
