Quirky but really nice
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!

Nice house
The house was very roomy. The beds were really comfortable. Aida was very responsive to all of our questions! My biggest complaint would be the neighborhood. It was so loud! We heard gunshots in the night, cars revving their loud engines, fireworks going off, and fire truck sirens going by. We were safe and our cars were not broken into.

The house was really clean! Kitchen was well stocked, neighborhood was quiet and we really appreciated how quick the owner responded to our texts/emails. The bedding was also really nice and comfortable. We would like two king beds for our over 6’ men, otherwise we would stay again. Thank you!

The home is amazing. It’s roomy with an open floor plan and high ceilings. It’s not in the best neighborhood - but it’s tucked safely away in a culdesac. We would definitely stay there again.

Really wonderful home!!
We stayed here to celebrate my dad's 80th birthday. It was a perfect place, good location and lots of room for family on Palo Alto to join us for a birthday dinner. My only issue was there weren't tea towels to dry dishes anywhere. I checked all the locations the host told me to check and found only bath washcloths. That made it difficult to keep the dishes moving to feed everyone. Otherwise this house is perfect!

Lovely home in East Palo Alto
We had a lovely stay. The host was extremely responsive, and the check-in and check-out process was super easy. The home is very spacious and well-appointed and located on a quiet cul-de-sac with plenty of parking. We had appointments at Stanford Medical Center, and it was about a 15-20 minute drive, depending on traffic. The sauna in the backyard was a nice touch. We would definitely stay there again!

Lovely home. Very comfortable. Area a bit rough.
The home is lovely and well appointed. Proximity to Palo Alto is great. Wifi works well downstairs. Suggest that the wifi router is moved out from under the TV cabinet for better coverage. Communication with Aida was wonderful and super fast. While the house is very safe in a cul de sac, the street leading to it is a bit rough with the smell of weed all pervasive. No coffee shops or restaurants of note close by. Despite these observations, we really liked the stay. Thanks!

We had a week of baseball camps and tournaments in the Bay Area and didn't want to stay in a hotel. The house was comfortable and close to everything we needed to access. The owners were quick to respond to messages as well.

Loved our stay!
This was the perfect spot for all that we had going on during our stay. It was close to the freeway so going into SF was a breeze and the communication with the owners was great! They were even accommodating to us and let us drop off our stuff prior to check in (which is great when you have lots of baby stuff also). Definitely will be looking to stay here again when in the area!

Nice home!
The property was roomy, comfortable , well equipped, great beds and owners extremely nice and responsive. Wish we had taken advantage of the Sauna. East Palo Alto is having a resurgence but it will be some time before it is nice enough to walk around the area. The McDonalds is in walking distance. 700 ft which is great in a pinch.

This home was like a private hotel with its family plush amenities and overall charm. It was an ideal place for us to recoup as my daughter had a procedure done at the children’s hospital about 15 minutes away. We will definitely return if we find ourselves back in the area.
