"It was a nice building but not that easy to find the box to access the door key. Clean and nicely decorated. I'm not a fan of heights so I wouldn't choose this place again just for the reason that it's on the 2nd floor and the landing was small. Great use of space and the kitchen looked very nicely equipped. My 2 night stay turned into a15 hour stay due to travel changes but I would definitely recommend. of docs"

"The guesthouse is exactly as described. Clean, quiet, well-appointed, and non-fussy. The bed was comfortable, which is really all that mattered (to me). The shower was actually nice with body wash provided. While there is no sink (face basin), it is not that big a deal and, for me, wasn't be a deal breaker. I would absolutely stay there again. Thank you so much! You provided a perfect solution for a quick stay."

The unit was clean and useable.I reached out to the owner, Ilya, multiple times between booking and during our stay.First time (pre-stay) it took her 2 weeks to respond. She was away, skiing.

"The neighborhood is simply incredible and everything is well thought out you don’t need to bring much! Can’t wait to return!"

"Our stay was good overall. However, the city center was quite far without a car. The nearest bus stop was a 15-minute walk away, followed by a 30-minute ride to the closest Caltrain station into town.One major issue we encountered was a dog barking behind Unit 3. It became especially disruptive over the last three nights & days barking every two minutes, which was incredibly frustrating.The owners were responsive and efficient. When we requested extra towels for our 12-day stay, they provided...

"We couldn't have asked for a nicer place to stay. The house was large and well-maintained. It is in the center of Palo Alto, so it was close to everywhere we needed to go. The hosts were very friendly, extremely helpful, and quick to respond when we couldn't figure out how to unlock the electric stove. The house had all the amenities we needed. There wasn't anything missing. We will definitely stay there the next time we are in Palo Alto, California."

"Spotless ADU on beautiful property in lovely Palo Alto. Landlord was responsive. Neighborhood is great but a long walk to Stanford. A light outside the property would be useful. Would recommend this property for one person or a couple."

"clean, private patio great neighborhood close to restaurants and shopping.We did not notice that the garage said medium car but we were able to navigate. Ana was excellent and was available to assist us. we look forward to returning."

"The home is very spacious and has everything you’d need, to include the little basics for cooking, bath, morning coffee, etc. it’s an open design with lots of room and numerous nooks for reading or relaxing. Great deck in the back yard, and beautiful roses and fruit trees out front. The neighborhood is less tony than Palo Alto proper, but the immediate cul de sac is nice and the location is really convenient to everything in the area. Perfect for what we needed, with plush beds for all! "

"The place is exactly as described and comfortable. I appreciated the responsiveness of the host when I had questions. "

"We had a great stay! Great and charming house with all that is needed for a visit in the area! Owners were really wonderful and made the whole visit easy. Thank you! "

"My wife and I needed a place close to Stanford and Menlo Park for a family event - the property was perfect for our trip. Comfortable, clean, quiet and just a few blocks from terrific coffee, restaurants and shops. "

"We had a delightful time in this lovely home which is within walking distance to many local treasures. We will definitely return in the future!"

"This unit was very quiet despite it's closeness to the downtown area and the university. Very easy to walk to get coffee or food. The street parking is fine. There was some confusion with the listing, part of it said we could add a guest for one night for 25 but when we asked the property manager they said no. Lesson learned to select a different vrbo which will allow 3 guests. Overall a very nice unit while visiting Stanford for Family Weekend."

"Great stay in Palo Alto! Mainly used the place for family to sleep over the holidays while seeing family locally. Good communication and very clean. Would stay again on a visit!"
