The inside smelled like strong cleaning supplies so airing it out was necessary. The door for one of the bedrooms was locked and were told to find a way to open it on our own, so if you need immediate support for anything related to the house, expect you will need to do it yourself.

The Nest Hotel Palo Alto

10/10 Excellent
"Great location. Just minutes to Standard University, restaurants, mall and hospitals. Easy parking, clean and quiet rooms. Their service getting better each time we visited. Their outdoor seating is a plus. We love to seat near the fire pit and chat with friends. Or just watch and listen to water falls. Simply relaxed. Staffs are warm and welcoming! Super helpful!"
