Need to get pest control out and do a better job cleaning. Found 3 spiders hanging around the corners and ants on the walls and in my bed. I guess you get what you pay for.

This was a solid, no-frills stay. The rooms have been recently updated and were clean and comfortable. Plenty of parking right in front. Right on El Camino so easy access to all of the delights of the Peninsula. Would stay again.

For me, staying at the Leland Hotel was a truly unique experience. I had never before stayed at lodgings where every aspect of the service provided to guests was managed electronically. This included both check-in and check-out procedures, and all the amenities within the accommodation from motion-sensing bathroom lights to available streaming videos, to safe and secure door locking mechanisms. The most surprising and delightful aspect of this was a trainee desk clerk named Paula who staffed the registration desk's electronic kiosk. She was courteous, helpful, attentive and highly competent in every possible way. As a senior woman, I might have easily felt that interacting with hotel staff via electronic connection, as opposed to face-to-face, was daunting. However, Paula's kind and reassuring presence resulted in an experience which was both pleasant and efficiently managed. I wish to commend this trainee for her kind and respectful service. She is a credit to the Leland Hotel establishment in every possible way and she deserves to be commended!
This is a view of the concert stage I attended at the Stanford Frost Amphitheater, which was the purpose of my trip.

Small but sufficient

Comfortable enough for a small family, but tight in a room with 2 beds and no chair or luggage rack.
