limited breakfast

We had a cozy stay here, especially enjoying the spacious pool area which kept the kids entertained. The nearby parks were perfect for a family picnic, making it a memorable time for all of us.

In my wife's opinion, the breakfast options were lacking variety.

The Standard King Room was comfy with a really nice bed and pillows. Location was great, super close to work. The room was clean but had a weird musty smell. For $100 on El Camino, it was decent for a night’s stay.

The stay was quite comfortable, especially with the clean floors and the charming oak tree nearby, which made the atmosphere refreshing. The amenities like the coffee maker, fridge, and microwave were really helpful, especially when managing a family. Although better bathroom fixtures would elevate the experience, overall it met my needs well.

great location but confusing billing

The Standard King Room was quite spacious and afforded a comfortable stay. I enjoyed the clean floors that created a pleasant atmosphere. The charming oak tree outside my window added a touch of nature that I appreciated. I also found the amenities like the fridge and microwave to be very useful and practical during my stay.

The billing process was somewhat confusing, which marred an otherwise positive experience.

The location is super convenient, just a stroll away from the bustling medical community, making it perfect for solo travelers like me! I loved the cozy room vibe with a big flat-screen TV and comfy bed that cradled me every night. Plus, the charming outdoor area by the pool is a lovely escape, framed by nature and perfect for lounging!
