Pros +

  • Clean & quiet, great staff
  • The room was very quiet .. very nice bed and pillows .. large tv with a fire stick so you can watch Netflix etc . Good water pressure in shower
  • The staff were exceptionally friendly. My husband was in the hospital for surgery, and while I stayed with him through the nights, it was so nice to have a clean, comfortable room to keep my things, shower and nap. They were very understanding that I may need to extend my stay, and offered to help in anyway. The location was convenient as well. I would recommend d the Stanford Motor Inn. Sincerely, Debra Harrell
