Very well located in the vicinity of Palo Alto/Mountain View, on El Camino main artery. 5 minutes from the 101 highway. Ducks in a system of ponds, looks almost like a Hawaiian resort. Lots of shady trees, a good American style restaurant for breakfast/lunch/dinner, with a flair for slightly gourmet. Reasonable price, quiet rooms, small issues get fixed immediately.

While technically a 3 star, it was better than some 4 stars I have stayed at. I would put this hotel closer to 4 stars for decor, room size, comfort, pool facilities and staff attentiveness. A special mention for RJ who was super welcoming. Parking is free, onsite and plentiful. Location wise, while not a typical vacation stay area, this was a fantastic base for downtown San Jose, a trip to the coast, a trip to Yosemite etc. Nearby lots of restaurants (within walking distance, and a large outdoor shopping complex with a huge reasonably priced supermarket. Try the Taco street van just down the road for authentic Mexican cuisine. Although room only, there is a service station in reception to replenish on tea/coffee in a morning and has plenty of fresh fruit. You can order breakfast options from reception. For between $8-12. I would definitely stay here again.

I liked almost everything about this property: interior design, cleanliness, facilities! I had a room with balcony, which is a bit bigger, nicely designed. The location was ok, close to Apple Park where I had to go, and also to 1 or 2 bus lines.
