We enjoyed our stay here. We stayed with small children. The breakfast buffet was pretty good, but was a little bummed that if you wanted an omelette that was an extra $$$ cost. Otherwise there was fruit, yogurt, cereals, scrambled eggs, bacon, waffles, bagels, etc. They served breakfast potatoes also but both days we had them they were not good, dry and hard. The lobby and lounging area is beautiful and clean. Pool and gym were very clean also, and gym had great new equipment. Staff was very pleasant. Would stay again.

If you are visiting Stanford...
Stayed for two night's. This hotel is close to Stanford University. Check-in was smooth. I asked and was given two bottles of water. My room was clean. The keurig machine and several pods were useful. There is a refrigerator, microwave, and a safe. Unfortunately, like most hotels, the shower water pressure wasn't very strong. The restaurant and bar were nice. There is also a HAPPY HOUR. If you are visiting the area this hotel is a nice option.
