Mostly updated room, flat screen tv, bed soft, several pillows, excellent breakfast. We've had to stay in this area several times over the last 2 years and this was definitely good for the price. If you need to go to Stanford, then this is a good place to stay. We hadn't gotten reservations in advance, as I recalled lots of... More

Stayed at this motel 3 or 4 years ago and it was ok. In November 2011 stayed here again and found it to be refurbished and much to my wife's liking. Clean modern rooms and friendly staff. Will stay here again. More

Very clean room, everything looks recently updated (not including the CRT TV). The included breakfast was nice for the price. I stayed here while on an interview at Stanford, the distance is 4 miles (which is great if you have your own car, but comes up to $15+tip by cab each way). My room was on the second floor somewhat... More

It's a bed that is fairly comfortable. It's a breakfast that is edible. It was inexpensive and got the job done. More

My experience was similar to other reviewers. I wish I had read them first. It was subpar for the neighborhood. When we found a stained sheet, the manager handed us a new sheet and started to walk away, saying he was too busy to help. Later, and late that night, we found suspicious hairs on the fitted sheet. It was... More

Could be better maintained. With the door locked and double locked you could see around it to the outside. Furniture and TV were old and outdated. Breakfast was terrible primarily due to lack of decent seating and cold breakfast foods. Desk personnel were average but housekeeping seemed to do a good job . More

Just like the previous reviewer I was double-charged and they attempted to stick me with it initially. After dealing with the clueless manager-on-duty, a rude young man, I was contacted by the owner directly. We had a conversation in which he finally saw the erroe of his ways. Stay very far away from this property. Liars and cheats to be... More

Although the room was fine and the breakfast subpar, when I got home I realized that I was double charged (charged on the credit card I gave to hold the room, and charged on the credit card I paid for the room). When I called the hotel to request a refund for one of the charges, they said no! They... More

Rooms are relatively clean. Carpets are new and the beds & towels are average for CI. The problem was the smell of bug spray in the room and the recent presence of someone else in the room. The soap was unwrapped and the sink was wet. I would go ask for another room but I'm just too tired. Staff is... More
