"Overall, it has the feel of a small courtyard resort. There's an open fire near the lobby for warmth, and a small waterfall on the other side. Warming up by the fire at night is very cozy."

"Dinah's is a little oasis in the middle of Palo Alto, set back nicely from the main road such that it is a quiet location, and suited for a get-away or for a peaceful place to relax after business meetings. The restaurant beside the pool serves good food quickly."

"The location is very convenient, with easy access to Stanford University, Stanford Hospital, downtown Palo Alto and local restaurants and shops — perfect if you’re in the area for appointments or events. Rooms were spacious for the price, clean, and came with useful extras like a mini-fridge, microwave and in-room coffee, which made my stay comfortable. The hotel offers free Wi-Fi and on-site parking, both definite pluses in this part of California. The staff were friendly and helpful, and check-in/check-out was straightforward — which I appreciated after long travel days. "
