Comfortable hotel in central location. Great amenities and staff.

Cozy and quiet

Cozy place. Nice and quiet. Has a nice patio and pool I wish I could have used more. Breakfast was good, not your typical fake eggs and fake food, so it was healthy choice with homemade oatmeal and an excellent coffee machine.

Fantastic place to stay in the area!

Good nights sleep!

The room was on the smaller side but very very clean and had everything you could think of. The decor was spot on. We were in town for a local soccer tournament. It was nice to have a quiet nights sleep without doors constantly slamming or people running up and down hallways. Parking was so easy. We will be staying again.

Perfect stay

Stayed two nights in conjunction with knee surgery at Stanford and was perfect. Had a single room before surgery and double after, both were extremely comfortable and comforting. Lovely piece of property close to Stanford and other amenities. Great breakfast and price, too. It almost turned a knee replacement into a lovely two-day getaway!

This place is a little gem in Menlo Park. Exceptionally clean, very well maintained, nice staff, little touches like complimentary coffee and breakfast were a hit with our group. By far one of the best places we’ve stayed in the Bay Area! Will definitely revisit!
