Creekside Inn is a beautiful 3-star hotel with very nice and large rooms that also have balconies that turn into an incredible inner garden. It's located 15 minutes from Stanford University (by bicycle) and near a very nice and peaceful neighborhood. The room has (almost) everything one needs except maybe a kettle. The property also has a laundry room and a deli shop, which was very convenient.

    Lots of wonderful restaurants in the area.

    Lots of wonderful restaurants in the area. California Street a little north of the Dinah's is closed to traffic at least on the weekends. Many restaurants along California Street, University Ave. etc. We had dinner at a wonderful Pakistani Restaurant -- Zareen's. good value, very friendly atmosphere. Nearby Stanford Shopping Center, Stanford University. Also plenty to see and do on campus including museum. Great weather.

    Palo Alto, nice neighbour hood which felt safe. I was able to walk from the Caltrain station to the hotel without feeling afraid. Although not much to do in the immediate neighbourhood. Nearby areas like Santa Clara and Hillsdale provided things to do. Great to see the Scharity shop in the area.

    Palo Alto is a great location.

    Palo Alto is a great location. There are several great restaurants near by. I would recommend The Pasta Market, Chef Chu's, Tofu house and the Green Elephant. Touring the Stanford Campus is fun. They have a collection of wonderful Rodin Sculptures. There is always Stanford Shopping mall which has an excellent selection of shops.

    I never knew how beautiful Stanford University was! It is definitely worth a visit. Don't miss the beautiful church and the amazing Art museum. Our hotel was @ a 1 hour walk to downtown Palo Alto, but only a 25 minute walk to the Caltrain station on California Avenue. This street is also like a mini downtown with a few good restaurants and shops. The train ride to the Palo Alto station was less than five minutes.

    I don't know if the price was lower because of the construction in part of the hotel, but I never heard the work being done and It was a fantastic price. The bed and linens are soft and comfortable. The room a good temperature. It was roomy with a comfy couch. The TV worked fine and there were no problems at all. I would recommend this hotel any time.

    This hotel/motel was a great value.

    This hotel/motel was a great value. It exceeded all expectations. Although rated a 2 Star Hotel, it certainly shows itself better than its rating. Plenty of parking. Very quiet although located on the El Camino. Well appointed rooms. Comfy bed, room was very clean, and furnished very nicely. My wife loved the complimentary soft drinks & snacks offered during check-in. No complaints.

    Great location, family owned and run (I think?), quiet, a comfortable bed, clean a refrigerator that worked and wasn't noisy, a microwave (which I didn't use, so this would be good for a short self-catering budget stay in Palo Alto). There's a small pool which I didn't use, but looks well-maintained and a nice arrangement, with a forested ravine bounding the hotel and giving the pool lounging area a surprisingly natural ambience from looking in.

    Good location (3 bus stops from transit center, most supermarkets ~1 km away, grocery, pharmacy). Room very comfortable. Bathroom was very clean, room also clean. Staff was always there, extremely helpful and polite. Fast internet connection. Price was probably the best compared to other hotels in the area.
