I booked a stay here because I was getting a surgery at Stanford Medicine Outpatient Center which is 10 minutes away. They have an elevator. Their hvac units have continuous fan mode that makes good white noise. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Overall, it was a pleasant, comfortable, and reasonably priced experience.

Hard to find
Nice breakfast, decent room. But almost impossible to find! I drove past it several times because it looks like a garage not a hotel.

Missing front desk personnel
We would definitely consider staying here again. The room was spacious and clean. The bed and pillows were comfortable. It was extremely quiet.
The only CON with our stay was the check-in. When we arrived at approximately 715ish pm to check-in, there was no one at the reception desk. We waited at least 20 mins before the receptionist came back. He apologized but did not explain why he was not present at the time. There were another couple waiting to check in as well. Its just not acceptable to leave the front desk unattended for that amount of time and who knows how long he was out before we even arrived.

Great place!
The night desk clerk wasn't super friendly, but the clerk in AM was great. Room was very clean and stocked with refrigerator, microwave, hairdryer, etc. The best of all were the full-sized shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, handwash, and body lotion dispenser...Dove products.
