Comfort Inn Palo Alto

Comfort Inn Palo Alto

8/10 Good
"Parking is easy at this location, check in is smooth and breakfast is ready around 6-6:30am when I usually leave. I’ve stayed here a few times for work trips. First time was great the second time the shower head didn’t work. When I checked in to my hotel it was already pretty late and I didn’t think anyone would be able to fix it at that time. For location and price I would book again for the convenience."
