The hotel has a great location right next to the train station and 5 minutes walk to downtown, offering a wonderful setting. The rooms are of excellent quality and feature a huge TV with a full cable selection, albeit not having 2 double beds. The service was accommodating and attentive, ideal for meeting my need for an early check-in before my sister's wedding. The dining experience, while tasted delicious under current circumstances, needs more vegan options. The overall experience was positive, despite some system issues with reservations and noise disturbances from neighboring parties during the night.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of convenience and challenges. The location was perfect, with easy access to Stanford University and downtown Palo Alto, but the room positioning and lack of hot breakfast were drawbacks. Overall, a decent experience.

The room was far from parking, facing the train station and parking lot, which made it a bit challenging to get to. We also felt the air quality was not the best in the room.

The breakfast was limited to Danish and coffee, which was a bit underwhelming. The dining experience could have been improved with a more substantial hot breakfast.

The hotel's location is superb, right by the train station and only a short walk to downtown. The service was a mixed bag, ranging from being helpful and polite to somewhat disinterested. The dining experience was satisfactory with a decent selection but had some room for improvement. The rooms had quality furnishings and a large TV, but some areas were outdated and had unpleasant smells. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.
