“The recent remodel has truly elevated this property, especially the generously sized King Cottage Suite. What stands out is the unexpected attention to detail, from the impressive complimentary breakfast with frittatas and Equator coffee to the LATHER skincare products. It's a boutique experience that manages to feel both serene and connected, a rare find in Silicon Valley.”
