Perfect Stay in Menlo

This home was absolutely lovely. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. It was clean and uncluttered. The yard was adorable and a nice quiet and cool reprieve from the hot summer days. Not to mention, the location can’t be beat. We will absolutely stay here again.

Relaxed days near Stanford Campus

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house is very clean, tastefully furnished, cosy, we found everything we needed, e.g. in the kitchen, lovely little garden, very quiet despite excellent location near Standord Campus and Sand Hill Road. Safe parking of the car in the street near house without problems.

Great home close to Stanford

This is an impeccably maintained cottage in a very quiet neighborhood within walking distance to Stanford. Beautifully appointed and very comfortable. Lovely grounds with tangerine, lemon and orange trees. I would have given 5 stars but the property is advertised as having a spa but guests cannot use it. I would def stay here again

Relaxing home

We rented the house while my father was in the hospital at Stanford. It worked out so well to have a nice cozy home that was close by the hospital to go back and forth. It is in a quiet neighborhood and was quick for us to get to the shopping center and restaurants or go for a neighborhood walk. Allie was very responsive and a great host! We would recommend the house and appreciate our time there.

Perfect stay in a great location

From the moment my son and I entered the property we had a feeling that this place was going to be a perfect stay. From the cozy living area to the perfectly equipped kitchen to the lovely bedrooms with excellent beds. The outside area was also lovely and very quiet. Unfortunately we had bad weather so we couldn’t enjoy sitting outside. We would definitely like to stay here again. U can tell that the owner wants the guests to have a home away from home feeling. It worked totally for us!

The house was a perfect location while our teen was at a camp at Stanford for 2 weeks. We enjoyed the quiet, walkable neighborhood with quick access to campus, downtown Menlo Park and Palo Alto, and numerous trails. The house was very comfortable and clean. The kitchen, and house in general, were very well equipped for a longer trip. The desk area was helpful for work for a few remote work days and the patio and immaculate yard were lovely for sitting outside and relaxing.We only needed to contact the host once for a very minor issue and she responded quickly. We would definitely return if staying in the area again.
