It was newly renovated and the rooms were very comfortable, clean and very quiet. We only stayed one night due to a Hospital stay. It was very convenient that they had a happy hour that evening and they served hot dogs and nachos. With a foot ball game on their big screen TV. Very comforting.

Really quiet and clean in the middle of downtown Palo Alto. Upgraded to a nice suite beds very comfortable, blackout curtains, nice and dark. Good room service breakfast the next morning. Plush robes, nice big closet. Hot chocolate down in the lobby, and not the mix your own powdery stuff. It was pretty delicious. Coffee service on each floor in the morning. Pretty special.

Lots of wonderful restaurants in the area.

Lots of wonderful restaurants in the area. California Street a little north of the Dinah's is closed to traffic at least on the weekends. Many restaurants along California Street, University Ave. etc. We had dinner at a wonderful Pakistani Restaurant -- Zareen's. good value, very friendly atmosphere. Nearby Stanford Shopping Center, Stanford University. Also plenty to see and do on campus including museum. Great weather.

Palo Alto, nice neighbour hood which felt safe.

Palo Alto, nice neighbour hood which felt safe. I was able to walk from the Caltrain station to the hotel without feeling afraid. Although not much to do in the immediate neighbourhood. Nearby areas like Santa Clara and Hillsdale provided things to do. Great to see the Scharity shop in the area.

Palo Alto is a great location.

Palo Alto is a great location. There are several great restaurants near by. I would recommend The Pasta Market, Chef Chu's, Tofu house and the Green Elephant. Touring the Stanford Campus is fun. They have a collection of wonderful Rodin Sculptures. There is always Stanford Shopping mall which has an excellent selection of shops.

I never knew how beautiful Stanford University was!

I never knew how beautiful Stanford University was! It is definitely worth a visit. Don't miss the beautiful church and the amazing Art museum. Our hotel was @ a 1 hour walk to downtown Palo Alto, but only a 25 minute walk to the Caltrain station on California Avenue. This street is also like a mini downtown with a few good restaurants and shops. The train ride to the Palo Alto station was less than five minutes.

I don't know if the price was lower because of the construction in part of the hotel, but I never heard the work being done and It was a fantastic price. The bed and linens are soft and comfortable. The room a good temperature. It was roomy with a comfy couch. The TV worked fine and there were no problems at all. I would recommend this hotel any time.

This hotel/motel was a great value.

This hotel/motel was a great value. It exceeded all expectations. Although rated a 2 Star Hotel, it certainly shows itself better than its rating. Plenty of parking. Very quiet although located on the El Camino. Well appointed rooms. Comfy bed, room was very clean, and furnished very nicely. My wife loved the complimentary soft drinks & snacks offered during check-in. No complaints.

Graduate hotels have such a cute concept. Even our key cards featured celebrities (ours was Tiger Woods and Reese Witherspoon) and their alma maters. Staff were excellent, friendly and attentive from the start. The room was neat, though quite small, and gave a very elevated dorm in an elite institution vibes. We didn't get a chance to explore the rooftop bar, but the restaurant was delicious with even better drinks. Would definitely stay here again if I'm ever in town.

Good location in "downtown" Palo Alto. There are two redwoodtrees towering in front of the old wooden building. The house is a charming alternative to motels. Modern shower! Not too far from bus and CalTrain station. In case you have a car, there is a parking lot at the back of the house. My key was in an envelop at the entry, no interaction with any human (is this a good or a bad thing?).
