Utilitarian but efficient
Utilitarian hotel, we use when staying in Menlo for concerts at the Frost or the Guild Theater. It's very small with small rooms, and there can be significant street noise during waking hours. However, it is cheap(ish) and clean, and they have a pretty decent breakfast. Don't expect much but a good bed and use the provided earplugs and you are all set.

The room was clean and the bed was good. They tripled the normal room rent, because of an event at Standford. Parking was an issue and the breakfast buffet was limited and cold.
