"This hotel worked out very well for our stay while one of us had surgery at Stanford Hospital. The one thing I should have done was book an accessible room, as there were no bars to hang onto in the shower/tub, and I needed them. Also we ended up on the second floor, and then found out after the surgery that I can only climb stairs if I go up backwards. The staff would have moved us to a ground floor room, but they were full up. The room was spacious and the bed comfortable."
