Comfort Inn Palo Alto

Comfort Inn Palo Alto

10/10 Excellent
"Aptly named. We were very comfortable at the comfort inn. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean and well maintained. It was a busy trip so we were only in the room to sleep. Didn’t partake in breakfast as the conference has breakfast. Great proximity to Stanford Campus and for a great price for the area…"
