Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The Cowper Inn is perfectly located in the heart of Palo Alto, just a short walk from restaurants and coffee shops, yet tucked away in a quiet and beautiful neighbourhood. The property itself is elegantly laid out, with spacious, comfortable and clean room, that had everything we needed for our visit to Stanford University. What truly made our stay exceptional was the host, Hugo. He is genuinely one of the kindest and most thoughtful hosts we’ve ever met. I accidentally left my handbag in the room while rushing to the airport, and Hugo went above and beyond—he contacted me immediately and kindly arranged for it to be delivered to me via an Uber driver. His care and willingness to go the extra mile truly define what a “super host” should be. We are incredibly grateful and would not hesitate to stay here again. Highly recommended!
Negative: None
Summary: Perfectly located, super host Hugo!
