The room was spacious and worked for our family. The pool is heated but still too cold for a winter time swim without a jacuzzi or way to warm up, also no towels were available at the pool which made for an extra cold walk back to our room. Breakfast was VERY minimal and the coffee was gross. Thankfully the room had a microwave and fridge so we grabbed our own food items for breakfasts. The location was very nice and worked well for our visit to Sam Fran and Stanford Children’s Hospital. Overall we would stay here again but would bring our own breakfast and big pool towels.

The room was clean and fresh. The staff were welcoming and very much helpful and extremely well customer service. The property is beautifully maintained and set up with the trees and the front desk to the housekeeping staff all were very professional and friendly. We had a great stay and will definitely be back. It is an oasis tucked away from the El Camino but very special and cozy.

We were welcomed with a bottle of wine from Expedia, which was very nice. The room is spacious for two. Parking is no issue and easy to find. The hotel provides complementary onsite charging for Tesla vehicles, but the two charging stations can be occupied overnight. Breakfast is also complementary with limited options. Overall, it was a nice stay.
