At check in they were so nice and friendly, I got there unexpectedly late from the hospital where my husband was admitted and they told me everything nearby that was open incase I was hungry. The room was so well stocked too, I had to work remotely and the wifi was perfect with a super good desk setup. I was having a sad time, and this experience made me feel so much better. Im really thankful!

The room was big, but, the parking was not my favorite thing. Also all rooms are upstairs. I didn’t know this until I got there. It’s hard for me and my daughter to climb stairs, but I had already paid. I don’t think I will stay there again.

They need to include in their advertising the fact that there are no ground floor rooms. You have to walk up at least one flight of stairs to get to the rooms. And things in the room were a little funky around the edges, but the bed was clean and comfortable. Whatever

The parking spaces were so small I could squeeze in but had to climb out the back door. The room was so dated, with flooring coming up,mold around the tiny shower. We would NEVER recommend or stay there again. How you rated it very nice is beyond me. Also, it said it is 2.8 miles from the Stanford Health Center and it was close to 8 miles.

The room was large and clean with normal amenities. The heat was a little strange. Had to set to 80 F to get proper temperature, but I know the actual temperature was not 80. Shower hand came off in my hand, but if you were careful it stayed in place. Price was right. Lower than anywhere around. Quiet and acceptable.
