Typical American-style hotel! It's not bad in many ways, but it seems that the characteristics of the American hotel are inevitable that they are bothered by the noise between floors! It's up to luck

Hotel was nice and clean. Beds were a little hard and paying for parking is ridiculous.

Pretty nice compared to last place we stayed at down the street. Here for business. It was surprisingly quiet (we don’t live in a city) and the people were friendly. Will come again next time we have to stay in Palo Alto
