Cozy Stay
Arrived early. The young girl at the counter was able to get us checked in without any issues. Room was big and the beds were extremely comfortable. The deli next door was convenient and the food was great. Definitely recommend staying here. Also the pool is heated!

Great Stay In Palo Alto
My husband was in the hospital and I had to change my discharge date a few time as his stay was lengthened. They were so accommodating and I was able to check in early and stay in the same room. Grounds are lovely with lots of outdoor seating.

I have stayed at this property several times in the past but this is the first time I've been there in the winter. I never noticed the fact that the heat / air conditioning has no thermostat. This is a really nice hotel and I love it..... but I was SUPER disappointed at having to get up in the middle of the night because I was either freezing or roasting due to the fact that the heat is manually controlled. I would expect a nice hotel like this to have a thermostatically controlled HVAC for each room.

Medical trip
We always stay here whenever we have appointments at Stanford hospital. It's immaculate and nice. One thing I was disappointed was that no water bottles were offered. They did offer water from the water machine in the office which seemed odd. But other than that it was great. Will keep staying there.
