We have stayed here a couple of times on days that Stanford Football Team is playing. Rooms are very clean, staff is very friendly and it is not far from shopping for the women. Very easy access to the freeway. Not a big restaurant but able to get something for all 3 meals. Good food and good service. Nothing fancy but a little pricey.

I am a Marriott Platinum member. Stayed close to 70 nights at the Marriott chain, and another 70 nights at other chains by the end of net year. I am a Marriott Platinum member. I only get a small bottle of water and a few more hotel points staying here. There is no free breakfast. They have happy hour, but I have to pay. I stayed at the Residence Inn right next to it the night before. I moved because I want to check this out. For a few dollars more, I get free breakfast, free dinner with wine and beer and a one bedroom suite with kitchen, refrigerator and microwave oven.

Pro:
Modern look, friendly staffs

Con
No refrigerator or micro wave
no free breakfast
No Real happy hour with free drinks.
Did not get upgraded to a suite as a Platinum member

Hallway to the room was ice cold because the AC was running all the time even in the evening when iIt was 50 degrees outside. The hotel is wasting a lot of energy cooling the hallways. This is a typical problem in a lot of hotels. When you go into a room. the AC has been set at 60 degrees when it is nice and cool outside under 65 degrees.

We stayed here for two nights while college shopping in the Bay Area. The location is a little off the beaten path (about 10 minutes across the bay from Palo Alto; same distance from Oakland Airport) but it's well worth it. The staff are friendly and helpful. The hotel is well maintained, includes a small but well equipped gym, as well as a washer/dryer. The rooms were clean and in great shape. I can honestly say that I do not have single complaint. Everything was great. Plus we paid about $90 a night.

We stayed here for 5 days in August 2012 on business. The weather was cold and rainy, a bit unusual for that time of year but the stay was great, nice rooms and the staff will bend over backwards to help you with any need you have. There is a Starbucks on location in their little restaurant there, same prices as the Starbucks across the street but that Starbucks closes early. This hotel is at a good location right off the freeway/toll (be aware there is a toll going towards San Francisco), big Raleys supermarket in the parking lot and lots of Asian restaurants to choose from. However, our favorite restaurant was a hole in the wall Mexican that honestly cannot be missed. Across the street from the hotel, open late called Taqueria Los Gallos, supremely great and super cheap!!! Honestly, I am born and bred Los Angeleno and I love my Mexican food but this was fantastic. The family Chinese restaurant in the same parking lot was less good but they gave tons and they were super cheap, perhaps you need to know what to order.
