The room was ridiculously small with a non-transparent window. When entering, I found a bunch of cleaning lady’s hair in the shower. Gross!

Dirty and disappointing - avoid! After arriving and checking the sheets I went to sleep due to jetlag after long travel and work. I woke up in the night and discovered a dirty sock, and that the floor clearly hadn’t been cleaned due to the state of my clean white socks. On going to make a coffee in the morning, I discovered that the mug was sticky and dirty. A clean room really is the bare minimum and at the price point really unacceptable. Breakfast was limited. Complaint dealt with poorly. Very glad I was only staying for one night.

This was a great little hotel for my wife and I. It is for sure a “boutique” style hotel. The rooms are small and there is a small inconvenience that you have to walk through the bathroom to exit the room, but for just the two of to spend a quick weekend in Palo Alto together it was GREAT! The hotel is VERY close to University Ave where all the restaurants and bars are. And it is a quick Uber/Lyft ride to shopping and other dining.

Stay was good. Only issue was that the room key kept inactivating everyday so that was annoying. Wish the gran and go breakfast had more of a selection. Also they don’t have flavored coffee creamer so bring your own!

My room was on the first floor. It was very noisy - because the floors aren't carpeted, the guest upstairs sounded like they were having a flamenco dance party until midnight. There was a loud buzzing and clicking noise every 5 minutes in the room that I couldn't find the source for. The room was just off the very noisy breakfast room that filled with people at 7am. The conditioner and shampoo bottles in the shower were out. The room was VERY small, and there was no place to put my luggage except on the floor. When we arrived, the key card maker was out, so the very nice staff had to let us in and out of our rooms anytime we came and went. Great location! Comfortable bed. But wouldn't stay here again.

The room didn’t have a safe or closet. The elevator wasn’t working one day. The heat didn’t work in our room, but the manager did bring us an extra blanket and a space heater. On the upside, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was above-average. I liked the 24/7 free coffee, tea, and water. The room was clean.
