Sun-filled whole house
Airy, sweet midcentury house. Could use some spit and polish plus a deep clean (Febreeze is NOT a substitute) but otherwise a fabulous place to stay. Fun kitchen/family room and glorious sunshine and lemon tree out front.

Nice, but just a few things could have improved
The bedrooms were good sized, the neighborhood was lovely, and all issues were resolved within a day. However, the TV didn’t work the first day, the lighting in the family room was poor, and the wood floor was the dirtiest I’ve ever walked on.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Communication with the Prop Manager was easy.
If arriving at night, it's a little difficult to see. You can only see the carport and initially we thought it belonged to another home, so we passed by it a few times. Just be aware that the house sits off the street a bit and the front door is at the end of the driveway hidden by a fence so it's really easy to miss. The property management company sent clear messages and was easy to work with. The property was a little older than it appeared it pictures, but it was spacious. The area surrounding the home had plenty of shopping, restaurants and grocery stores. We were there for Stanford and it was an easy straight drive of about 10 minutes away without having to travel on a highway
