Quality Inn & Suites At NASA Ames

Stayed for a night, was bitten by bed bugs.

Okay 3 star hotel close to NASA.
The rooms are spacious; there is a separate bedroom and a seating area with a couch and a coffee table.
The 101 is across the street but I couldn’t hear it from my hotel room. Downtown Mountain View is a 30 minute walk, but there are a bar and a convenience store around the corner.

It was clean and convenient to where I was working for the week. The breakfast selection was your typical cereal, waffles, and bread. Bed was clean, and the pillows are tiny, just like the other reviews said. It made me laugh. The tv has a lot of channels which was nice and it’s about 5 minutes from downtown mountain view. I was concerned about the highway being right next to the hotel, but my room was quiet enough that I couldn’t even tell.
It’s a little weird to get to the front desk as the parking lot is on the side of the building or you have to park under the hotel in the garage and ride the elevator up a floor. The staff was very nice though.

Why does it smell like a wet carpet all the time?
I stayed here for two nights, it was fine. Nothing special and thankfully the bed and pillows were comfortable. I was laughing at one of the other reviews about the tiny pillows… he was right! As long as everything was clean and quite I’m happy. Since this was for a business trip I’d consider coming back.
The continental breakfast was bla at best.

Just checked in and got to my room. There’s a king bed, with 5 couch cushion sized pillows (check out the photo I added to this review). They are comical in size, all lined up like toy soldiers. I feel like someone is playing a joke on me.
Called the front desk immediately:
Me: Hello there, I was wondering if you have any, uh, normal sized pillows?
Front Desk: No, that is all we have.
Me: Really? Not a single normal sized pillow in the entire hotel? You know you are using normal sized pillow cases with really small pillows, right?
Front Desk: Yes, that’s all we have.
Me: And no one has ever complained about this before?
Font Desk: No, never.
Me: Uhh, OK, I’m guessing people have complained about this. I’ll go check Unilocal.
Sure enough, I check the reviews here and BOOM, people are complaining about the miniature pillows. I don’t get it. Why give me 5 mini-​pillows when you can give me two normal sized pillows?
Mind blown.
Oh, and the hallways smell like a group shower at an old folks home. (Full disclosure: I’ve never personally experienced such a shower scene but I’ve got a vivid imagination.)
Stay away… unless you have a really tiny head… then you’ll be fine.

I wanted to do 3 ½, but rounded up on this one. First and foremost, the rooms are nice. Bed is comfy, hotel was quiet, and I slept like a baby (I have trouble sleeping in hotels). Staff was accommodating when I checked in and asked for a room not by the freeway. Wifi worked great from my room. Much faster than I’m used to for a hotel. Lots of TV channels as it’s just Comcast.
Breakfast was very unimpressive. Eggs weren’t real eggs and didn’t taste good, only 2 types of cereal, pastries were little mini Hostess donuts and rolls that you can buy at the store. I ended up having a bowl of Frosted Flakes and a biscuit which was ok.
I almost killed myself on the shower floor which was extremely slick and didn’t have any non-​slip things on it.
Would I stay here again? Most likely. It was pretty close to where I needed to be, and as I slept well which is a key for me, I would. I just would go elsewhere for breakfast or buy my own stuff.

Sparse bathrooms. parking underground.
Strange place, horrible by nationwide hotel standards but I guess good by Silicon Valley standards

Have stayed here about 5 times last 5 months.
Good, clean suites.
If you stay here on Friday or Saturday, make sure to stay AWAY from the «King of Aces» (or whatever it is called) side of the hotel. Make them move you to the street side — that nightclub is annoying, music blaring. You shouldn’t have a problem moving — this is the ultimate business traveler hotel (i.e. it is DEAD on Fri and Sat night).

I stayed two nights here on a work-​related trip.
The first thing you’ll notice as you enter the establishment is a big sign which says «WARNING: This area contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.»
Sigh. Welcome to California.
My California native co-​worker assured me that these signs are common enough in California that they’re usually ignored. Which makes sense — if they were that harmful, the state would have not allowed the hotel to operate at all. Still, this does not inspire confidence. For this alone, I would have chosen some other hotel, had I known.
The room costed $ 85, and it was spacious. Wireless access was free. There was an empty fridge in every room. There was no microwave in my room (unlike the reviewer who said there was one).
But the mattress was slightly sub-​standard (I could feel the spaces between the coils — though I could sleep fine), and the pillows were weird (they were not full-​sized pillows, but rather like pin-​cushions). The hotel is right next to a busy highway (US-​101), and while I was able to sleep soundly, you may want to take this into consideration.
The thing that did bother me the most was that the toilet did not flush properly — you had to hold down the handle while the water was flushing to get it to flush fully (and no, this was not a water conserving toilet or something — the flush was just very weak). This was not an isolated problem in my room — my two other co-​workers in other rooms reported the very same problem.
All these, combined with the warning by the State of California makes me reluctant to visit this establishment again.

I give this hotel 4 stars.
The beds are really comfortable, nice showers, plus a decent breakfast.
I’ve stayed here on several occasions, and the service is always great.
A nice parking lot that is safe and lighted up plus free wifi.
Room comes with refrigerator, coffee maker, and oh yes, a microwave

I stayed here a month ago. It is a wonderful hotel. The room was very, very clean. I agree with tin that people at the front desk were friendly, courteous and helpful. Great and spacious business center. The breakfast was excellent as it had everything imaginable.
The only downside was that I couldn’t use the farthest access to the stairs as it was locked and there was no way to unlock it from the other end. Though, I could use the other one located across from the elevator. But, of course, I chose to use the elevator, especially since my room was on the 2^nd floor.
All in all, a great place to stay and worth it for the price that I paid.

This place stinks. No, it literally stinks. There must have been some disaster in which there was a bad odor and their solution was to make this place reek of cleaning fluid. I don’t think this was temporary.
Don’t confuse being clean with smelling like cleaning fluid.
and my toilet wouldn’t flush correctly.
on the positive side, the breakfast included bacon.
on the whole, an unpleasant experience.

We stay here once a month and have always been very satisfied. Had a couple of glitches this time with a broken air conditioning unit and a slightly pissy smelling bathroom in the same room. Never had this happen before as rooms have always been clean and fresh. Oh well pee happens sometimes and housekeepers get canned over it. We changed rooms and everything was perfect.
Staff has always been extremely helpful and courteous. Free breakfast is always good with scrambled eggs, hard boiled eggs, sausage, bacon, biscuits and gravy, waffles, french toast, cereal, fruit, coffee, tea and juice.

This place is so fresh and so clean. So fresh and so clean clean. I stayed here on a business trip. The room was nice. The people at the front desk were friendly, courteous and helpful. I really recommend staying here. I’d come back.
