This is a modest motel with some odd inconsistencies room to room. Whatever, the big plus of Oak Motel is its location location location. Nice little swimming pool too.

Motel is on the older side vs. all the big hotels surrounding it in Palo Alto close to Stanford. Unfortunately there was an incident where we had to vacate the room and the staff were great to accommodate us. Everything was clean and comfortable and had all the amenities except a coffee maker without coffee so I reckon you needed to ask for some. We aren’t coffee drinkers so we were fine. There was a nice continental breakfast. All in all it was worth the low price and I would come back again.

The staff was very helpful, friendly, and understanding when I had issues with the key cards and retrieving personal items from the room that I had forgotten. I was grateful to have received an upgraded room on the lower level. I enjoy staying here more than where I am living. Carpet is always better, when available.

lots of parking, a really old hotel, but it was clean. I had appt at Stanford Medical and it was convenient. Lots of more expensive hotels right next to it. For the cost, it was a good deal. Just know it is old. It worked for a night.

Overall stay was fine, room service was good with friendly maids ( they spoke some English). Reasonable price. Easy access to restaurants and shopping. Their soap could be of better quality. Lot better than a Motel 6! But no breakfast or restaurant on site. Has a pool!

I have not been here in a while, but it is still a good place to stay. It would be better sharing a room with the right person. There are soft chairs and enough space for extra items from home. There is a wide screen television in front of the bed and a table in front, which can be moved to either side. Bring a DVD player with an HDMI cable, if possible because there is nothing really good on television now and the older shows are much better. The maids should set the clocks to the correct time, even if it is just the microwave. They usually miss some spots while cleaning and I find some trash behind or under items. I like the early check-in time of 1:00 P.M., rather than 3:00 P.M. at most places and that we can leave the key card in the room if checking out early.
