Great deal on a budget!! I enjoyed my stay at the Palo Alto Inn and would stay here again. It is in an ideal location, and the rooms felt very clean- especially the bed. I like that they provided plenty of body wash, shampoo, and conditioner along with other toiletries. The microwave, fridge, and coffeemaker were great touches as well. The staff were very friendly and made for a great stay. If I were to stay here again, I would request a second level room because I am sensitive to noise but that is applicable to any hotel.

Perfect choice! Clean and very easy to get checked in. Staff very accommodating and allowed us to check in early. Rooms well appointed with everything needed for a great stay. Easy parking and snacks and water included and available. They were pretty full when we were there in a Saturday night for our one-night stay. Would absolutely choose and stay again when in the area. Very reasonable price too!

This is by far one of the BEST hotel experiences we've had. We stay at hotels frequently as my son in law works for a large corporate hotel chain and this place totally out does them all. Check in was easy and pleasant. The gentleman helping us was so sweet and offered us complimentary drinks and snacks and a chocolate candy. Even gave us the option of ground floor which I highly appreciated as I don't do well with stairs. The room was immaculate! Clean, sanitized and had fresh flowers in both the room and bathroom. And let me tell you about the garden.. Zen overload 😌 We sat outside for hours after our event just sipping wine. Definitely will be back and HIGHLY recommend! Absolutely incredible and the price was amazing for what we got. 10/10 !

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful Stay at the Palo Alto Inn! I stayed at the Palo Alto Inn for one night while attending a show at Shoreline, and everything from check-in to check-out was fantastic! The general manager personally checked us in — he was super friendly and made sure we had a great room in a quiet area. The room itself was spotless, the beds were incredibly comfortable (we honestly wished we could’ve taken them home!), and the bathroom was well-stocked with all the essentials — plus extras in case we’d forgotten anything. The water pressure was perfect, which is always a huge bonus. We also appreciated the thoughtful outdoor seating area for smokers — it was clean, comfortable, and nicely arranged. Overall, it was an excellent stay with great hospitality and attention to detail. I’ll
