Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were super cosy but not ideal for light sleepers due to the noise from the train passing by every 20 minutes. My room was close to the lobby with a loud clanking flagpole outside. On the upside, the room was spacious, very clean, and equipped with a sofa, writing desk, two separate sinks, and a nice shower bath.
My stay at the hotel was quite an experience! The rooms were a mix of spacious and comfortable to start with, but I had to change to a different room the next day. The service was impeccable, from the friendly welcome with a glass of wine to the engaging restaurant staff, making my stay truly memorable. The location was awesome, with great proximity to shopping and dining options. However, the dining experience could use some improvement, with a few menu items unavailable. Overall, a memorable stay with some minor hiccups.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were arranged just as I expected, with great amenities and a cozy bed for a restful night's sleep. The service was extremely warm and inviting, going out of their way to assist in any way they could. The hotel's location was perfect for accessing everything I needed, from errands to socializing.

My stay at this hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were spacious, quiet, and comfortable, with great natural lighting and operable windows for enjoying the fresh breeze. The staff provided exceptional service, being friendly, attentive, and extremely helpful. The location was convenient, allowing easy access to Stanford and Silicon Valley attractions. While the dining options were enjoyable, the prices were slightly on the higher side. The facilities were well-maintained, contributing to a pleasant stay.
The hotel has some beautiful, elegantly decorated rooms with comfortable beds, but they definitely need an upgrade. While spacious, they felt dated, and some hardware was difficult to operate. The service was very friendly and accommodating, although the restaurant service was a bit slow at times. The location is excellent for various activities, with a nice atmosphere and convenient access to different areas. The dining options were decent but a little pricey for what was offered.
