Good hotel

Liked: Comfortable hotel in a good location and one of the few places in Palo Alto that allowed a very late night booking and check-in far after midnight.
Disliked: I understand that this is Palo Alto, but it is difficult to understand paying the rate that I did for a shared (and to be fair, generally clean) bathroom.
