Very good

Location is in great proximity to Medical School campus and Stanford Mall. It's within walking distance to many restaurants and easy available parking as well. Some noise due to proximity to road but clean and comfortable.

Breakfast was more than a continental but not as good as I hàve had from previous Best Westerns. I love how the toilet paper and tissue were made into flowers :) convenient location near food and other leisure activities.
facility itself was overally good enough, but the payment i made to Expedia was an extortion, not being able to accept this , i paid much more than what it supposed to be
Second time I"ve stayed there. Despite the doors facing the outside, I feel safe and it's so clean and modern. Staff are generous and kind. The free breakfast is amazing. Robot coffee machine and waffles...and a breakfast steward to help you with anything you might need.
