Special member room price offered from hotels.com

They have water saver heads installed in the showers. So the volume was lower than I'd like. But the pressure was OK and I just stayed in rinsing off a little longer. It is a sign of the times regarding trying to conserve water. No breakfast was available due to Covid-19 safety issues.

It was just an overnight stay and was very happy with the room. Lots of big trees around so made it feel quiet and relaxing.

The grounds and the room were very clean. The room and the bathroom were spacious and equipped with the expected and advertised amenities. Being somewhat off the main street the room was quiet. The included breakfast was modest but acceptable. The location is withing walking distance of downtown Menlo Park and a 10-minute drive to 101. A very pleasant stay at a reasonable price.

建物自体は古そうだけど、何故か他のところに比べると良い印象。 El Camino real から離れた奥の部屋だったせいか、非常に静か。たまにカルトレインの警笛が聞こえけるくらい。 朝食は期待しない方がいいけど、ベーグル、ゆでたまご、コーヒー、ヨーグルトあれば十分かな。次も利用する可能性大です。

Desk staff was indifferent to not helpful. Pool appeared to be open but I was told not available. Continental breakfast is very sketchy. Room and amenities were good; shower only; no tub. Parking a bonus.

Always a good stay

We love the Red Cottage Inn & Suites. For us, when visiting family, it's an amazing location that's very convenient access and still quiet and homey feeling. The rooms are spacious and the staff helpful and gracious. It's one of our most preferred Menlo Park hotel spots.
