Great place to stay in and just relax after a long trip from out of town. We rented other places around Palo Alto and Mountain View area, and this is by far the best place to in the area. I strongly recommended. And thank you to the staff for helping us out with our early check in. You guys made our day much easier and less stressful.

Excellent location, nice propety. It had a creek going tbrough the property. The room is nice. Its an excellent place for the value of money. The only improvement is the breakfast, which is a bit too simple. No hot choices.

Pulling off a nondescript area along El Camino, expected a plain hotel. Surprised by lovely room that was recently redone, very clean and well supplied with nice products. Very good continental breakfast.

We have stayed there several times but my credit card was hacked so they would not allow me to stay there until I produced cash. This is a fault with management. They could have looked up to see we have stayed there before so I had to go to the bank and get $400 in cash before they would allow us to stay there. They do not trust me.
