Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service

I have never had an issue staying a hotel but over the last week was horrible. Caring for my sick grandmother at Stanford driving back and forth I would hope to get some quiet, not the case people stomping above me, people running passed my door, and yelling all through the late hrs. When I was asked how my stay was I told them horrible and the front just stared at me and just asked me if I wanted my receipt didn’t ask what happened or anything. The only person that did her job very well was the lady at the breakfast counter she was apologetic when the simplest things didn’t go right and went to fix it right away. I unfortunately don’t recommend this felicity

Great stay for campus visit.

We chose the property based on price and proximity to university campus. I was expecting a typical drab and frumpy motel. What we found was a clean, cheerful property well maintained with freindly staff. The room was clean, smelled fresh and inviting. Considering the locales, a good value for the money

Thermostat was turned off when I arrived and the room was very cold. It took some time to warm up. Also lukewarm water in the shower both mornings of my stay. Disappointing. Great location, however.

Utilitarian but efficient

Utilitarian hotel, we use when staying in Menlo for concerts at the Frost or the Guild Theater. It's very small with small rooms, and there can be significant street noise during waking hours. However, it is cheap(ish) and clean, and they have a pretty decent breakfast. Don't expect much but a good bed and use the provided earplugs and you are all set.

The room was clean and the bed was good. They tripled the normal room rent, because of an event at Standford. Parking was an issue and the breakfast buffet was limited and cold.
