8/10 Good
"Air conditioning in our first room wasn't working, and the maintenance person didn't seem to understand. However, the desk moved us to another room (for handicap guests, but no inconvenience) when the AC couldn't be fixed."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Central Portola Valley?
The best time to go to Central Portola Valley is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) months.

Spring in Portola Valley offers pleasant temperatures, typically ranging from 15°C to 25°C, making it ideal for outdoor activities. The hillsides are lush and green after the winter rains, and wildflowers are in bloom. This is a great time for hikers and cyclists to explore the numerous trails, such as those in Windy Hill Open Space Preserve, which provide stunning views of the Silicon Valley.

Autumn also provides comfortable weather, with temperatures generally between 18°C and 28°C, and less chance of rain than in spring. The air is often clear, offering excellent visibility for enjoying the scenery. It's a superb time for those who enjoy wine tasting in the nearby Santa Cruz Mountains or simply relaxing outdoors without the heat of summer.

While summer (July and August) can be warm, with temperatures occasionally exceeding 30°C, it's still a popular time for visitors who enjoy sunny weather.
