On January 19th, the last evening of my stay I walked to the front desk and requested a late check out at 1 pm, stating I was going to sleep in as I was very tired and had not caught up on my sleep. I was planning to sleep in til noon then leave by 1pm. However, around 8am on January 20 the cleaning crew started knocking at my door and would not leave. I had to ask them to leave 3 times. As soon as they left, the room phone started ringing. So, unable to sleep at that point as it was around 8:30am I got up took a shower, packed my bags and went to the front desk to check out and told them I was checking out early because the hotel cleaning crew banged on my door relentlessly around 8 am and you subsequently rang my room phone. This cause me to lose my sleep. The person at the front desk said that another guest checked out stating their room number was 213 (my room number) and that's why they sent the cleaning crew to my room. I responded stating that they should have checked the person's name against the room number and that it is their job to do so. I was a zombie the entire last day of my trip and had to cancel my hiking plans as I was sleepless. I also felt sick by the evening and had a terrible day. I was to catch a red eye back east so missing on sleeping in really damaged my health. I asked for a refund of at least the last night's bill but was refused by the front desk person.

Great property and rooms, friendly staff and a surprise was the pizza offered through the hotel. Was in the lobby and asked the woman behind the counter for a recommendation for lunch with a colleague for a work meeting. She suggested their pizza which I thought was going to be some microwaved spongy watery thing. She convinced me to try and it was excellent! Highly recommend the property and if you are in the mood for pizza try the mushroom one.

This was our 3rd stay at this hotel. Very nice location and staff. They offer wine tasting and a nice patio area with outdoor fireplace and comfortable seating. The only issue is there was a small infestation of ants in our room and bathroom - which was on the ground floor. The receptionist said that they regularly sprayed for ants - however we think the ground floor rooms should be regularly checked before guests arrive. And that the ant service schedule is continued on a regular basis. The hotel receptionist did change us to an upstairs room and there were not ants in that room.

Modern motel in quiet location

This is a modern, and very conveniently located motel in a quiet location, just off El Camino Real in Palo Alto. The hot breakfast in the morning was a very nice touch as well. Only complaint I have is lack of sufficient counter space for placing objects inside the room. The one side table was very small and there is no dresser or table to set anything on. There was a small desk in the corner, but there is plenty of wasted space that could be used for some practical furniture. But other than that, everything else is fine especially the bathroom which did have adequate counter space.

modern, quiet, nice, comfortable.

Very nice hotel. we love modern, which this is. MUCH nicer than the hotels near by, which we have certainly tried, so we are happy to find this place. Rooms are a little small, but then the price is worth it. Only real complaint is that they should give guests instructions on how to use the thermostat. That was very frustrating. We will come back.
