The criteria for being a true geek hotel includes loaner iPads and smart-card check-ins. Or, as is the case with this new boutique hotel, simply being Where The Geeks Are. And you can't get much geekier than Palo Alto, home of Stanford University, AOL, Google, Facebook ... and the new Hotel Keen.
With just 42 rooms, the hotel is pretty small--and from the photos, it looks pretty no-frills and no fuss. But it's the little things that should reel in the geeks. The Free WiFi, the bagged lunch you can grab on your way out to a pitch meeting, and the whiteboard surfaces for late-night brainstorming sessions.
