Creekside Inn
Room was clean and had plenty of room which made things comfortable. The grounds were kept up very well as grounds keepers were seen actively. Parking spots are a little tight but plenty of spots. Breakfast is continental style which I wish had more options.

My best exotic Marigold hotel in Palo Alto! A well and efficient managed multi-generation family run updated older motel! Very nice staff, clean, pleasant, everything is well thought through, beautiful flowers, everywhere, and don’t miss the magical lights illuminating at night😃 Charming!

@ Marbella Lane -cozy 1BR Studio in Palo Alto Dwtn
This is a great property if you have a dog with its private yard and grass area. It’s also VERY close to downtown. Negatives…dead ants, tree sheds sticky leaves that stick to everything. I would rent again!
