Stayed over last April after visiting colleges, Santa Clara, so was ready for a good nights rest! Got the sleep and got breakfast the next morning, on site. Was, as others have reported, a renovated property that retained it's colorful past. We had a 2 room unit upstairs (no elevator that we saw) so son s,et in sleeper sofa &... More

Not completely charming hotel but very friendly staff, parking and breakfast ok. Tiny gym. No glamour at this place though.

One of the worst hotels experiences in my life. I booked through Hotwire, thinking it was a 3 stars hotel, only to find out that it is an old, noisy and dirty motor inn trying to look "cool". Located on a bad area, next to 2 trailer parks and dive bars. Rooms have no curtains, not possible to darken the... More

Nice bijou hotel with swimming pool. Rooms are clean and comfortable, with coffee and breakfast available in the lounge. Mostly a corporate hotel but the do have extended stay rooms in the back of the property. Walking distance to bars, restaurants, and 9-hole golf course.

This hotel was different, I wanted to dislike it, but it turned out ok. There is not a nice sit down restaurant near by that I could find. Ordered the in room delivery service listed in the room, which was ok, but then my room smelled like Italian the rest of my stay. This is a two story hotel, but... More

I am beginning to fall in love with Joie de Vivre Hotels... this is my second time staying in one of their properties and I can say that there is a common theme... friendliness. Customer service is a priority with their employees and it shows. Wild Palms is located in a convenient location if you are moving around the Silicon... More

Just spent 4 nights @ Wild Palms--good location between Mountain View and San Jose. Very pleased with room--double had plenty of room, a nice desk area, mini-fridge; bathroom had been updated and was very clean and both met our needs well. The grounds are very pleasant. Breakfast was fine; eggs each day with pancakes, french toast, sausage and bacon rotating... More

Nothing special. Te room was clean and simple, but definitely dated and not cool like the website would have you think. Breakfast was pretty simple, but free. Eggs from a milk carton type mix, bacon, pancakes from a packet and flavored rice. Staff were friendly but almost nonexistent. Good for the traveler on a budget but expect to get what... More

Kind of a funky property with accommodating staff (called our room after check-in to see if everything was okay and wondered if anything they could do to make our stay more pleasant.) Stayed here because traveling with pets and property was value-priced for a weekend stay. Collection of buildings with corridors that are open, so doesn't feel particularly clean. Would... More

Chose this place for a birthday weekend with the family. Prior to booking a hotel with young kids I usually call to confirm the pool was in working orders, although outdoors, was heated fairly nicely (above 80s). To my delight, upon arrival, the pool was heated and confirmed to be 83 degrees. The kids were absolutely excited and ecstatic! Hotel... More
