All the lampshades were askew like there was a rockin' party the previous night. Room 132 must be Party Central, but during my stay things were quiet.

The property is in a good proximity to the Stanford surgery center. But the room is old. It was a little noisy walls are thin. Breakfast was good. Parking was great.
