8/10 Very good

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!

If you're looking for affordable and quiet place to stay this is the one.. Although the motell looks old, it i very clean The staff are very accommodating, nice and flexible to your needs. As long as there are availabkw rooms, they'll even allow you to check in early.
Renato, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

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.

Air-conditioned does no get cold. No continental breakfast. Floors were sticky. Rooms were clean, beds were comfy.
Grace, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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!
Nick, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

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.

bedding was duty and bathroom as well

4/10 Fair

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.
5-night trip

6/10 Good

The mattresses were comfortable and a heated pool was good, lots of parking spaces The room smelled and a lot of stains on the carpet and the beds, they won't provide you towels unless they get the used ones back first...lack of English speaking staff....
Farid, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Better than I expected.

Last minute stay for a Stanford visit. Check in was very easy and pleasant. Same district as a lot of other hotels. Felt safe. Well lit and easy to park. Room is dated but didn’t expect much for the price. It was clean but again just old. Nothing overly off putting.

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.
Melina, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Second story View of hotel grounds across the street beautiful. No smoke alarms-just spot in ceiling where they should be. Room next to water heater. Sounded like freight train starting about midnight for few hours.
Linda, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room smelled and the carpet is dirty with a lot of stains, the Bed has a lot of stain as well, the desk and the dresser are really old ... Asked for extra towels and the staff didn't provide it unless they get back the used towels!!! The refrigerator was good the mattresses were comfortable, a lot of parking spots and a heated pool...
Farid, 2-night trip

Eww. Fridge in disrepair, stains in the tub, ac turning off on its own, and the stupid key did not work after the first time. I kept going back for him to fix it. Hated this place
