My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were dark with worn furniture, not the healthiest environment, but they were clean, albeit with a musty smell. The temperature in the room was a discomforting 90 degrees upon arrival. The service was a letdown as they refused a refund citing policy, forcing me to pay for both nights and find another place. On the bright side, the staff was hospitable and the location near Stanford Medical Community was convenient. The dining options were basic, with a small living room setup but better than expected.

6.0/10

I must say that my stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was quite convenient for my needs, with plenty of restaurants and stores within walking distance. However, the room had ridiculous prices in November, and the cleanliness left something to be desired. The service was hospitable, but the experience was dampened by their strict refund policy. Dining options were lacking, but the facilities were decent overall.

Rooms
5.0
The rooms were a mix of experiences. Initially, I was given a room with a dirty, dark walkway and outdated furnishings, but after requesting a change, the second room was somewhat better. The bed was soft, and the large TV was a plus, but the old carpet and furniture didn't match the expected standard.
Service

The staff was friendly during my stay, making me feel welcomed. However, I faced an issue with the refund policy when I wanted to cancel the second night, which was disappointing.

The location served my needs adequately, being close to my work and convenient for accessing Stanford University. There were plenty of dining options and stores within walking distance, although the noise from the upper neighbor's steps was bothersome at times.

The dining experience was not up to par with my expectations. The hotel lacked vegan-friendly options, and the small lounge area next to the office with no proper seating was quite disappointing.

The facilities at the hotel were average. While there weren't any major issues, there was nothing particularly outstanding either.

My stay at the Super 8 was a mix of ups and downs. The dark and dirty walkway near the laundry room was a big downside, but the hotel's proximity to the Stanford medical community was convenient. However, the lack of vegan-friendly options and early morning noise were disappointing.

The room I got wasn't satisfactory with its location next to a dirty, dark walkway and garbage piles. It wasn't ideal for those seeking a vegan-friendly stay.
