Location is in great proximity to Medical School campus and Stanford Mall. It's within walking distance to many restaurants and easy available parking as well. Some noise due to proximity to road but clean and comfortable.

Normal room, clean with good running water. Low rating was due to ongoing construction which was not indicated in the hotel description during booking. Noise insulation from road noise was good but not from room upstairs. Breakfast was basic and ok.
