Where’s the coffee

Room was nice, elevator was out of commission. No fee parking which was really nice. One drawback. No complementary ☕️coffee☕️ in the lobby. Every hotel I’ve stayed at has had ☕️☕️coffee☕️ service ☕️ in the lobby for its guests. Not here

This is a great option around Palo Alto area if you don't want to pay through the roof. It is very conveniently located if you are here to visit Stanford, Sand Hill Rd, etc. It has a great unassuming restaurant with American fare and fully stocked bar and lots of areas to sit around with a notebook and work. Highly recommended and great value for money.
