Great place to stay in Menlo Park. Room was very clean and surprisingly quiet given that it is located on a busy street.staff was very friendly and helpful. Coffee was put out very early (4:30am) in the lobby which was great for those of us on EST Coast Time! Would definitely stay here again.

The staff at the front desk were friendly and the property well appointed. The gym is located in a funky location and required someone from the front desk to help locate. Recommend perhaps adding a QR code to room to help guests understand how to navigate in room dining, car return, etc. I did not initially receive the concierge text so had to inquire about these things - a QR code would aid both guests and staff. When checking in I was asked if I needed a luggage cart - I did - but no offer to help get it up to my room so ended up taking up and returning myself. Some minor tweaks to the guest experience would help.
