Hotel Parmani Near Stanford University

I liked the garage parking for our room. The vending machine. Bed was comfortable. Staff was friendly.

Access from the road is somewhat difficult. Floor was soft, uneven and noisy to walk on. Limited covered parking was nice to have.

Check in was fascinating, done through an apparatus in the lobby, remotely, with scanning capabilities as well as a printer for door passes. Friendly, courteous, and informative. Room was fine, especially for the cost. No major amenities, but basics were all covered. Quiet, good mattress. Perfect for a one-night stay.

Large and open parking area but I did not have a car

Excellent location for Stanford events, shopping, and restaurants. Comfortable and had ample parking and covered parking.

The ADA room was well set up for wheelchairs. Parking was easy. McDonalds half a block away was convenient. Bed was comfortable. Lighting better than average. TV on the small size and the desk was quite small. Fridge was above average.

There was good parking, a microwave, a fridge, ice, and nice curtains. The AC was good and there was shampoo. TV was good as was the room lighting. There was a hair dryer, and the room was nice. Not really a very stylish building but better on the inside. The bed was fine also. I remember the surrounding area being nice and quiet but then again it is Palo Alto. It was the highest rate I paid on the California trip but not ridiculous and you are paying for the "Bay Area" location to some extent.

I loved the check in, the room was amazing. Very clean and quiet.. The property could use some upkeep- doors and stairs need painting. It is a good location for walking and we had a carport!! We will stay there again!

Paying for parking ? Really? Thats a bit much. No thank you

Great value for a clean, safe facility close to the Stanford campus. Not fancy, but this is reflected in the price.

Chair upholstery was stained, shears behind the curtain were shredded, mini blinds were broken. Dark and dingy interior. Got refund and left.

This place is trash. We paid $353 for one night so we can stay close to family member admitted at Stanford. They take advantage of being close by and charge crazy $$. Door knobs falling off and roaches in the room. To the management: have a heart and be fair. We rented a higher end hotel for the remainder of the stay just a little bit far from Stanford for less than one night at this place.

Nice, clean and convenient.

Loved staying here. Had it's own kitchen, very spacious and had 2 whole bedrooms. Very clean and quiet environment. Would stay here again

I booked the hotel Monday thru Friday because my husband was having surgery.Next morning woke up to bed bugs I had to checkout early. I let the the desk person know all he said he was going to make note of it didn't. I would stay there again.

Smelled like smoke. There were rags soaked with Lysol in the AC and stuffed behind the wardrobe to make it smell less. The automated kiosk checkin was slow and terrible.

Very clean

Room was just right for our purposes. Good size with everything we could need. Especially loved having 2 luggage stands which you rarely get in even expensive places. Clean, quiet, and comfortable.

The room is was in was so dirty! I was offers another room, but why go from on dirty room to another I just cleaned the room myself! It’s was so dirty.

Clean and reasonably priced compared to other lodging in the area. Will stay here again.

I really enjoyed staying here the room was super cute at first when I walked in I was upset cause I’m like wait a sec I asked for two beds then I went around the corner and the BEST surprise ever there was an actual bedroom! There was a guy there when we first checked in he was really nice and helpful throughout my stay. I’d definitely stay again.

This hotel was just fine for what it was; that is to say, it's one of the cheapest hotels in the area, but isn't dirty or seedy. Everything was clean and fresh, it was all just very cheap. Bare minimum on just about everything. But sometimes that's more than enough. If you're traveling on business (and have to pay up front for yourself) or traveling on a budget with family, Hotel Parmani is perfectly acceptable and won't leave you feeling dirty or gross afterwards.

No staff attendant. Remote video check in. Could not find anyone to drop bag. WiFi password not working and no one to call for support.

For a a boulevard motor lodge with outdoor corridors, this is a very comfortable and relatively affordable place. The staff or not always on-site, so you may interact with a remote person on a screen in the lobby. The room was quiet and the bed was very comfortable. There is a McDonalds only 75 yards west, so it's a good place to grab breakfast.

I was overall satisfied with my stay at this hotel. While the property is older, which naturally means some areas show signs of wear, the experience was positive overall. **What Went Well:** - The room was very clean and well-maintained. - The staff was exceptionally friendly, and I appreciated the addition of a virtual agent kiosk in the lobby, available after hours. - There were plenty of extra supplies available in the lobby, which was a nice touch. - The room size was decent and provided ample space. - I was pleasantly surprised to find a small kitchenette, complete with a hot plate, microwave, and mini refrigerator. - For those who enjoy TV, there was a great selection of DirectTV channels. - The heating and A/C unit worked efficiently, maintaining a comfortable temperature. - The room featured a bath/shower tub, which I found to be a nice amenity. **What Could Have Been Better:** - The bed was unfortunately uncomfortable. While I understand comfort is subjective, I felt the mattress could use an upgrade. - The pillows were not great either—small, lumpy, and flat, which made it hard to get a good night's sleep. - The toilet handle fell off, but to their credit, it was repaired the following day. - As expected with an older property, there was a slight musty odor in the room, which could have been better addressed. Overall, I had a pleasant stay

Internet did not work

This property is very dated. It could use quite a bit of updating. It was clean. It was ok for the price. No staff on the property from what I could see. I did not see even a maid. The property looked vacant most of the time. I would not go back again. The no staff and being virtual is just not for me.

I was in the area to visit Stanford. The motel is older but it was clean. The bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet. I will definitely stay here again. It’s an affordable option in Palo Alto where most of the hotels are pricey.

The water pressure and temperature regulation in the shower was poor. Not much flow and shifting from hot to cold and back. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Only staff we talked to was on the kiosk at check in and checkout.

Stuff was very helpful and pleasant. Excellent service.

The property is not a 5 star Ritz Carlton but it doesn't pretend to be. It's a nice motel with quiet efficient heating, a decent bed and nice hot shower. The room also has a table with 2 chairs, coffeemaker, fridge and microwave. It's just an easy 10 minute drive to Stanford. We had a little trouble with our tv and Management came and fixed it straight away. We would definitely stay here again especially at the price.

The stay was reasonably priced. However I checked in after 10:00 pm which apparently necessitated the need for virtual check in. This process did not go smoothly and I am not a fan of the service in general. I understand the need for safety but I do believe that a lot is lost by not having a front desk employee available in person. I was not happy with my room placement but knew it would be a hassle to change so I just stuck it out. Overall the property is decent, and if you’re looking for a value stay it is acceptable. However I would not recommend this property for most travelers.

Management and staff were very easy to work with and the kiosk availability was awesome and efficient!

Easy to check in & out, good service

The Front desk lady told me I could check in @4am, I came @4am to check in and she told me again that I’d have to wait another 4 hours to check in. So I had to sleep in my car and wait til 8am to check in and I had went back to finally check in and she told me I wouldn’t be able to. Overall her service was horrible and was not very helpful as she kept postponing my check in time to a later hour. I hope this doesn’t continue with other guests

The price was right if you reserved on offsite website, not the hotel itself. Not having a live person to check in was terrible - extremely slow and cumbersom process. It's adequate, but only 1-2 steps above a Motel 6.

Great easy check in and out

Terrible customer service.

QUIET AND FRIENDLY SERVICE

Property really close to Stanford University

Conveniently close to Stanford stadium with plenty of food options along the blvd.

The room was large and clean. The hotel is right next to a bus stop. Very walkable in the area.

Nice clean place. Close to Stanford. Good mexican food nearby

The location is perfect for our needs!

Older Motel but well maintained location is convenient to Stanford Hospital

If you need to flop for a night or two near Stanford, this is a fine choose, with no car, and you want to get your step. Short walk to California Street Palo Alto Caltrain station, restaurants/shopping and other amenities. Healthy walk to campus and hospital or very short drives.

Nice stay close location to Stanford!

A little disappointing. When I did the booking it said free breakfast. We checked in and were told they don't have it but there are resturant's up the street. We checked in and I was told that I had to go back to the office, they forgot to run my credit card. Then my wife came back to the office and said the inside door handle fell off, it was fixed quickly. Then at 10 pm my wife was in the bathroom and said the toilet seat was loose, It actually fell off, and I fixed it. We had to leave early and told them. I was told they would knock off 1 day. When I was getting out of the hospital I saw the bill was for the full amount. They said they would credit it the one day and haven't seen it yet. I have stayed at better and worse places.

Great for a stay over for people having procedure on spouse or loved one. Variety of restaurants nearby. My husband love Chinese food. Went to Da Sichuan Bistro, great for take out.
