Wonderful quick overnight stay! We were in town for an appointment at Stanford and needed the room for just the night. Check in was easy, FAST, and friendly! Room was SUPER cleaned & sanitized. There were even little juices and pastries. Bathroom was super clean too. I would definitely recommend. Also, if you stay here, you HAVE to eat at Honbee’s, you won’t be disappointed!
