I had a great night's sleep! I know that some have mentioned that it is near to the airport, but to be honest, I slept soundly. I was on the 2nd floor. On Friday evening, I think there was also a live show in the lobby (and I heard no sound from my room unless I went to the lobby). There were quite a few airline crews staying at the hotel, which I thought must support the statement about getting a good night's rest (since they work long hours). I loved how spacious the room was, the ability to make tea and the desk from which I could work, lots of outlets throughout the room to plug in both a phone and laptop, and the free shuttle (running every 15 minutes) to and from the airport. Oh, I also ordered food via Doordash one evening, and that worked out perfectly for me (I have a favourite place in Palo Alto I order from)

During my first trip to the United States, I booked a room at this hotel using booking.com. It was a really nice experience because the staff were super friendly and helpful. I want to give a special shoutout to Donald J, who helped me a lot during my stay. He helped me get groceries, find food, and even gave me rides to my campus. It made me feel like I was at home even though I was in a new place. I also want to mention Mary, another staff member who was really nice and made my stay better. The rooms were really clean, and the service was great. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a nice place to stay. Especially if it's your first time visiting the U.S., this hotel is a great place to start getting used to life here.

It looks really nice outside and in. The room was clean, the shower worked well and the water was hot. There was a well appointed restaurant within the hotel that opened at 5:30 am, served good food with very friendly staff. The shuttle was every 15 minutes with friendly drivers and free. Loved it.
