Excellent and friendly staff and clean and comfortable rooms.
James, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great little spot with fair pricing

It was clean and priced fairly. The rooms are on the smaller side but it was clean and comfortable. Parking is a little tight, if you have a trailer there’s no room for that onsite.
Chino, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The entire property was kept extremely clean.
Jerome, 2-night trip

Maria, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Nothing special - very pricey for the actual room, the service was very attentive though!
Jan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay for campus visit.

We chose the property based on price and proximity to university campus. I was expecting a typical drab and frumpy motel. What we found was a clean, cheerful property well maintained with freindly staff. The room was clean, smelled fresh and inviting. Considering the locales, a good value for the money
Revery, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really enjoyed this Best Westin. It was small and quaint but had everything I needed. It was clean, quiet and centrally located. The free break that they served was perfect.
Theresa, 2-night trip

Cute and clean property.
Ronnie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

facility itself was overally good enough, but the payment i made to Expedia was an extortion, not being able to accept this , i paid much more than what it supposed to be
Joon, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was clean and the bed was good. They tripled the normal room rent, because of an event at Standford. Parking was an issue and the breakfast buffet was limited and cold.
Joseph, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Breakfast is enough reasonable.
Yoshiro, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Because was on the street was a little bit noisy
Hadir, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was welcoming and the rooms were clean. The noise was an issue with windows open but less when closed. The primary reason I would not stay again is the uncomfortable beds. Mattress is too hard, linens stiff and scratchy, pillows flat and hard. Sadly, beds are a dealbreaker.
James, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The receptionist on the first day was a bit hard to communicate with (due to language barrier), though they were otherwise nice and friendly. It was way too noisy during the day. It would be nice have bottled water kept in the room. The location could be a bit more convenient.

Stanley, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

OK but not very clean

The room was not properly cleaned before my arrival, I saw trash on the floor (carpet) and the bathrub looked like it needed a good scrub. Stains on the walls as well..
