Our one night stay at the Courtyard Palo Los Altos was overall good. The rooms are a bit small. Initially we were put in the wrong room but the front desk staff corrected this and were friendly. The breakfast buffet is not included fyi but they do give you a 15% off coupon. There is an underground parking garage for guests which was convenient.
