Wonderful just not next to the elevator

Stayed because it was very close to Stanford hospital. I checked in late got settled in my bed to find the loudest noise ever that went off constantly. When I called the front desk they informed me it was the elevator and that was it. When checking out I informed the manager that the room should not be occupied and after letting her listen to several videos she gave me 50% off my room and was very apologetic. Other then the elevator the hotel was wonder, very clean, comfortable bed and close to the hospital.
