Second stay here, good value...

Liked: Second time here. Stayed in a room with separate bedroom and living area both times, which is a comfortable space for 3 nights. Kitchenette is a useful and appreciated feature. Location can't be beat: very close to Stanford University campus and a 1-minute walk from California St, which is a mostly pedestrian stretch of road with *many* restaurants, from cafes to upscale dining, and lots of outdoor seating. Ice machine was broken when we arrived, but staff were very helpful getting me some ice from next door, and the machine was fixed quickly.
Disliked: It's somewhat noisy during the day due to traffic, and occasionally at night with the large parking/business access area behind the hotel (for all those great restaurants). Some of the furniture could use refurbishing but everything is functional.
