I did not eat breakfast at the hotel however my daughter and granddaughter thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast. They said they were very tasty and of nice proportions in particular the breakfast sandwiches. My son in-law took advantage of the gym and remarked about how well the equipment was and how clean it was overall. My grandson just entered Stanford so I will probably come to the Hilton in future visits.
