It’s not my go to place in Palo Alto. The amenities are not good and the shampoo/conditioner was empty in the shower stall. Area is noisy at night with traffic.

It was clean and the staff were helpful. Parking was easy. Need curtain clips as the curtains don't always close all the way. Breakfast was good. Need bottle openers in the rooms. Overall needs were met.

Seating area for the continental breakfast is too small and it only had a few tables to eat.
The building itself looks nice, seemingly new paint. The room needs paint, and to be cleaned. It lacks upgrades. Unfortunately I will not be staying there again.
Everything was good. The only thing i did not like was that the shower head was broken.

My biggest complaint is that the vendinf machines dont work so you cant get bottled water on site. Our Direct Tv didnt work, but they were able to get us a better room with a working tv. The wallpaper was peeling in places but otherwise rooms were clean. Decent hotel if you just need a cheap place close to the Shoreline Amphitheater.

The interaction with the staff was good, attentive. The breakfast was good, I enjoyed it. The room was quite and bed was comfortable. but the in-room coffeemaker did not work. The shower was very hot and great shower head! The room met all my needs!
