The putting green needs improvement along with driving range. Dog park fence needs attention and area cleaned of tree debris. Only one elevator was working on a holiday week. Overall had a decent stay.

I picked it for the jacuzzi by the pool. Most other affordable hotels in the area offered free breakfast, they did not. However, I was willing to fore go the breakfast for the jacuzzi. I paid to much for that place. I could’ve got a comparable room for like $180. The pool was closed & all tore up- a mess. No jacuzzi as marketed. Bartender couldn’t make a lemon drop martini. What I hoped to be a relaxing night - was not. . Also., only one elevator was working. No usb/c plug ins in room. No screen on window. It goes on. 🙄

Stanford-Birthday Weekend
We came up to Palo Alto to celebrate my wife's birthday, hook up with friends and clients, and take in the last Stanford Football home game of the season. Great dinner on Friday night at Sundance Steakhouse. Stanford Cardinal came from 14 points down i. The 4th quarter to win on a walk-off field goal to end the game. Saturday night was dinner at Giorgio's in Los Altos in honor of our late friend. The Crowne Plaza was perfect for getting to and from these activities and had all the necessary amenities, including a decent buffet breakfast and a bar for a nightcap. Looking forward to returning when it's warmer.
