From the outside, this B&B, located near downtown Palo Alto, looks good. Inside, it is a run-down boarding house. Broken windows that don't fully open or close, tore window screens, curtains and blinds encrusted with filth, old smelly shag carpet, lumpy beds and questionably laundered bedding, cramped bathrooms with ancient fixtures hardly make the room- rates justifiable.

Many rooms are very spacious, including several suites with a second, smaller bedroom or a sitting room, for which the rates are to the best of my knowledge no greater than that of a standard single... more
