Stanford-Birthday Weekend
We came up to Palo Alto to celebrate my wife's birthday, hook up with friends and clients, and take in the last Stanford Football home game of the season. Great dinner on Friday night at Sundance Steakhouse. Stanford Cardinal came from 14 points down i. The 4th quarter to win on a walk-off field goal to end the game. Saturday night was dinner at Giorgio's in Los Altos in honor of our late friend. The Crowne Plaza was perfect for getting to and from these activities and had all the necessary amenities, including a decent buffet breakfast and a bar for a nightcap. Looking forward to returning when it's warmer.

The stay was fine but the room was a long way from the elevator. Although I had initialed it and it was on the bottom of the hotel.com website, I was surprised to get hit with a $15.00 parking fee. (Higher on the website, it said parking available.)

Disappointing to say the least
I came for my birthday weekend. I was very disappointed with the facilities. There was little to no pool side service, the hotel was overrun with other families with children who defecated in the pool and it took the entire afternoon to get the engineering department to deal with the issue. Further I called later to ask for a partial refund because I was unable to use the pool which was the purpose of my stay, but no one returned my call.
