Chicken Farm to Affordable Convenient Comfortable

It's easy to pass by this little in and not even realize The Wittle Inn is there. Snuggled in a neighborhood near downtown Sunnyvale and less than a block off a main drag, it's an easy walk to lots of restaurants and shops making its location extremely convenient. The room I stayed in was like a bungalow with safe parking literally right next to the door of the room. You'll find most of the amenities of a 5 star hotel, and everything worked. Check in was quick and efficient. The ONLY issue I had was with the strong odor of cleaning products, but after running the fan a bit, it dissipated (or I got used to it). Do I recommend this hotel? Yep. Absolutely! I mean, I can officially claim I stayed in what used to be a chicken farm almost a century ago!!

Unexpected results. I stayed in Wittle inn for one night for work purposes and had a wonderful experience. Check-in was simple, parking was easy, and property was maintained. Room 105 was very clean, had a microwave, mini refridge, toothpaste/brush, bathroom essentials, and a quiet aircon/heater. Great wifi and TV as well. I'd stayed here again whenever I am in Sunnyvale again. Thank you Wittle inn.

A little comfortable oasis in Sunnyvale

I am a lifetime Titanium Elite member of Marriott and prefer staying at one of their many choices of properties. This little boutique hotel was clean, comfortable, and the owner was accommodating. It did not have an ice-machine, however, the owner delivered 2 bags of ice. I needed to be in Los Altos one day and the other day in Santa Clara. Both drives were less than 15 minutes making this an ideal location. I was able to park right in front of my unit and that was totally convenient. There was a refrigerator, microwave, tv mounted on the wall, desk with an excellent lamp, excellent shower pressure and hot water, and the bed was comfortable. It is no Ritz Carlton but it was as comfortable as any Fairfield or Courtyard I have stayed. I will return when my business takes me to this area as the rate was extremely reasonable unlike the aforementioned properties.

Exactly as pictured and bed was heaven

Exactly as pictured. Very cute nice quiet place. The walls are brick so you don't hear other quests and traffic. Staff super nice and accommodating. Waiting for a refund to come thru due to mix up with online payment. Refund should process in day or tow. Staff gave me refund receipt. Don't double pay like I did. Was so tired when I got there I wasn't thinking. Couple things I would suggest. Don't forget to check refrigerator when people leave and the shower needs a shower caddy to place toiletries. I didn't like having to place them on the shower floor. Best thing? The bed was super comfortable!!! Thank you!
