Nice property near Stanford

I come to Palo Alto once a month. My quest for a clean, comfortable, safe, relatively new, and acceptably priced accomodations near Stanford (preferably with some form of light breakfast) has repeatedly left me disappointed. Of the many I have tried, this property comes the closest to my quest .... I will return. Nicely and I am guessing recently remodeled, my room was spotless and cheery. Black out shades also made it a good sleep. Breakfast was the typical, but the eggs actually had flavor and the sausage was tasty. My one disappointment was the minimum number of outlets and absence of any USB or C. This could be resolved with updated table lamps that include outlets so it is possible that is available in some rooms.

The room was quite adequate and met our expectations. Bed was comfortable with nice sheets. The room is very dated and somewhat worn. Motel is in process of updating rooms. We had room towards back so it was quiet. It took 18-20 minutes easy commute to get to Stanford Hospital.

All the lampshades were askew like there was a rockin' party the previous night. Room 132 must be Party Central, but during my stay things were quiet.

The property is in a good proximity to the Stanford surgery center. But the room is old. It was a little noisy walls are thin. Breakfast was good. Parking was great.
