The apartment is spotlessly clean and exactly as advertised. Location is great, off-street parking is a plus, and the communication from the hosts was timely and thorough. All in all a very easy process and I felt very well taken care of! Highly recommend this spot!

A lovely little gem

It's a nice tidy space for a short stay. The neighborhood is lovely; there are walking paths. It's also within walking distance to shopping and eateries. And the studio is well stocked; a tiny kitchen has just about all the conveniences one needs.

Good Location and Condition, but an Overly Restrictive Tone

The location and the overall condition of the accommodation were perfectly fine, and I personally had no issues during my stay.However, what left a negative impression was the excessive emphasis on warnings and prohibitions. From food waste disposal and cleaning rules to parking and smoking, there were constant reminders and strict instructions throughout the stay.I understand the need for house rules, and I’m someone who always uses a place carefully and leaves it clean. But the way these rules were communicated felt overly restrictive and somewhat unwelcoming, which unfortunately created a sense of resistance rather than reassurance.A slightly warmer, more trust-based tone would make the experience feel much more pleasant.

Great place and Great Location

My wife and I stayed here while visiting my elderly parents in Palo Alto. The place was clean and comfortable. Also perfect location. The neighborhood was very quiet and safe. Occasionally you could hear a train go by in the distance, but the noise was minimal. We were not disturbed by it at all. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks to the hosts for making our stay easy and pleasant.

A Little Gem

We stayed for two nights. The place while small is perfect for a short stay, and is wonderfully designed. Large windows allow lights to fill the space, and the yard provides plenty privacy. The kitchenette is very well stocked. The neighborhood is safe, walkable, and lovely with most houses displaying their tastes for plants and landscape.

Easy Access to Stanford - Wonderful Stay

I often stay with friends or in hotels when I visit Palo Alto, but hotels were either full or incredibly expensive, and friends were unavailable. When I found this studio so close to Stanford, I jumped on it. The neighborhood was lovely, it was very easy to get over to Stanford, and the accommodations were first-rate. Everything I needed was there, I did not have any issue with the train noise (but it was nice to know about it beforehand), and the setting was private.I will not hesitate to stay here again!

Cute, clean and convenient

A pleasant, modern, clean and convenient spot if in the Stanford area and all you need is a bed, an efficiency kitchen and a small table with chairs for one or two people who will sleep together. Bed might be a bit small for 2 larger people. Walkable to the university, Stanford Shopping Center, Menlo Park and Palo Alto. Comes with ear plugs if train noise bothers you but we hardly noticed it with bare ears.

Perfect Silicon Valley Studio !

Amazing - perfect location, wonderful accommodations and the host could not have been more hospitable. The access to Palo Alto, walking distance to University Ave, Stanford, Cal Train, Menlo Park, etc is perfect for anyone coming to the area for work or pleasure. Clean, comfortable and very quiet - I hope others enjoy and much as I did! Thank you!

Beautifully designed and decorated very comfortable cottage in peaceful, treed neighborhood. Longish but pleasant walk to Stanford campus; easy walk to coffee, restaurants. Great communication and easy access to the unit, despite our late-night arrival. Trains whistle in the night, but earplugs supplied:) Would absolutely love to stay here again.
