“Good price ratio.”
First night stay with a noisy room due to close to two ventilation machines in calling of neighbour building. Change to another room from 2nd night. Overall perspective satisfies with stays despite 1st night. Staffs are helpful to solve the problem, especially Mr. Nitish is very friendly and try to provide solution. Thank you all and I would recommend this hotel to others. Capability of problem solving is top!

Great location near all the best places of Palo Alto. Rooms are small but cosy, though beds are a bit too soft.. Staff was nice and helpful.
