Great stay for campus visit.
We chose the property based on price and proximity to university campus. I was expecting a typical drab and frumpy motel. What we found was a clean, cheerful property well maintained with freindly staff. The room was clean, smelled fresh and inviting. Considering the locales, a good value for the money

Thermostat was turned off when I arrived and the room was very cold. It took some time to warm up. Also lukewarm water in the shower both mornings of my stay. Disappointing. Great location, however.

Utilitarian but efficient
Utilitarian hotel, we use when staying in Menlo for concerts at the Frost or the Guild Theater.
It's very small with small rooms, and there can be significant street noise during waking hours.
However, it is cheap(ish) and clean, and they have a pretty decent breakfast.
Don't expect much but a good bed and use the provided earplugs and you are all set.

The room was clean and the bed was good. They tripled the normal room rent, because of an event at Standford. Parking was an issue and the breakfast buffet was limited and cold.

The managers at the front office were very helpful, but a train goes right behind property that will wake anyone.

Don't expect anything good.
It's a bed with a roof over your head. Maintenance and service are lacking.
