I always liked it - so totally Western as compared to the East. When my daughter had to have special attention we took her to what was then known as Children's Hospital at Stanford - probably the most wonderful hospital I have ever had reason to step into. They knew and understood what children and their parents need. The place should be sainted. Over the course of the six years (maybe more?) she was seen there the staff hardly changed. It later became the Lucille Packard Children's Hospital. Between that and the Monterey Bay Aquarium I have never in a million years felt badly about any piece of HP equipment I've ever purchased. Now the Sanford campus is more intensely urbanized and it's not nearly the same place. But I can say the same about UC Davis as the core becomes more cramped. At least there still aren't cars allowed in the core and a zillion bikes still fly around although fewer, per capita, than in years past.
