Close to Hospitals-Great Restaurant-Tired Rooms
Good location near hospitals. Restaurant and its personnel were exceptional. Overall, the hotel is tired and needs an update. The driveway entrance is obscured by overgrown trees/foliage and faded tile. It also serves as the garbage pickup and delivery area with a broad service gate left open all the time displaying abundant junk. There are some furnishing updates but significant remnants of dark older items. Wallpaper in room peeling. At the far end of the entrance near the meeting room there is beautiful new decor -- seriously considered expanding this to elevate the property.

Property was nice and staff were great. The indoor heated pool was nice but was way over capacity. People had the back door propped out and it felt like people not staying at the hotel were swimming. There was about 50 people all from one family there making it miserable for my family.

Pretty nice compared to last place we stayed at down the street. Here for business. It was surprisingly quiet (we don’t live in a city) and the people were friendly. Will come again next time we have to stay in Palo Alto

Good clean property and rooms. Although it’s pet friendly, there’s no dedicated place for dogs to use the bathroom. Had to walk blocks away to find grassy area. AC in room worked, but if you have a little one in the pullout it blasts them first and directly. Kind of a poor room design.
