This property was an excellent choice and for the great deal I just so happened to catch was fantastic! The hotel was a modern chic vibe. Beautifully decorated, serene, and the hotel staff is receptive and welcoming. There is bus transportation as well as Uber to get around. Approximately 15min drive to Stanford Mall and University Street area where there are numerous shops and restaurants. My room was well insulated which means I did not hear other hotel guests in their rooms or in the hallway. I highly recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again! Hope this helps someone’s future travels.
