Comfortable and convenient to Stanford hospital

Check in was easy. The bed and pillow was comfortable. Check out was easy. We forgot a toothbrush and they sent up a whole bag of toiletries. Snacks available for purchase. Easy access to parking garage. Great proximity to Stanford hospital for an early morning surgery.

Not what I expected

Westin, Palo Alto, is nothing like the one in SF. My stay in sf was amazing which is why i chosetheone in Palo Alto. Staff cer professional and polite no complaints there. But i had expected so much more. Small room service menu, very small. No restaurant. Ased about champagne and flowers for my lady's birthday. To NO avail.

Don't count on getting what you reserve

The suite I had reserved was not available, they instead put in me in two adjoining rooms. The bathroom barn door in one did not close, very strange. In addition, when my son was napping housekeeping kept knocking on the door even though I had the do not disturb sign up. There was some mixup with the room change, but it was not a great experience.

Very dissapointing.

This Westin was a very disappointing stay. We had only booked this room for one night. We arrived late and didn't have much issue checking in. However, the sink in the room had a VERY slow drain, filling up the sink almost immediately as soon as you opened the water. And even worse, in the morning the water was barely lukewarm to take a shower. The rooms were not sound proof, and in the morning we could hear the person above us singing (unfortunately without having a voice for it) at 7:30 AM. I expected better from a 4 star hotel, specially Westin! having hot water to shower is a bare minimum you can provide for your guests!

The amenities are slim and the hotel is definitely not up to the Westin standards that I used to know. The pool area and hot tub are not clean or inviting. There is no inviting place to sit and relax. Everything needs an update.
