A nice place to stay near everything

This clean 3 bedroom home is near everything in the Palo Alto area. It’s located off 101 & University within walking distance of shopping and a short drive to downtown, Stanford and pretty much anywhere in Silicon Valley.

We needed a longer term pet friendly rental in the area and were relieved to find this. The managers were communicative and helpful via text when things were needed. Thanks for the help!

The property itself was very nice and conveniently located, especially with its proximity to the freeway, which made getting around quite easy. The inside of the house was excellent – clean, well-furnished, and comfortable.However, I did face a few issues during my stay. The check-in process was not smooth — the property wasn't ready at the designated check-in time, and we had to wait an extra hour. There was also a problem with the lockbox code initially, but I appreciated that the property manager was very responsive and helped resolve it quickly.Some basic amenities in the bathrooms were not refilled, which was a bit inconvenient. Additionally, while the property is close to major roads, the surrounding neighborhood didn’t feel ideal.Overall, I had a mixed experience. The interior and management responsiveness were definite positives, but the check-in delays and some overlooked details took away from the overall stay.

DANGEROUS couldn’t even stay

I have been with VRBO for many years but this is a dangerous property to stay at. We couldn’t even check in as it was a scary area to get out. Furniture on sidewalks turned upside down, bars on windows, garbage in the street. Parked cars on lawns. It was very unsafe and we could not stay there. Felt scared to get out of our rental car. Also the manager just said oh well contact VRBO never ever addressed the misrepresentation about a lux stay? Completely blown away by how we felt swindled after flying for 6 hours and going to a weekend graduation only to find a completely different place than any lux type of a stay. Someone could get mugged or worse be killed there. We paid $2k and wanted some back but never even got a reply from the manager. Very unprofessional and total rip off! Please be very aware that it’s not at all lux.

Poor Quality

The neighborhood was rundown, broken down cars on the street and a liquor store on the corner with people outside drinking. Upon entering the home there was a strong smell of a cleaning product and the temperature in the home was 78 degrees. Opened the garage to find a pile of someone else's used sheets/towels sitting on a chair next to the washer/dryer (unsanitary at best). Went to push the garage door opener and stuck my hand in a cobweb with a spider in it...looked down and there were ants everywhere. As we began to put groceries away, there was a 1/2 full Brita in the fridge and food on the paper towel roll where the cleaner had just created a paper flower. Went to the restroom only to grab a piece of wet toilet paper. Pulled bedding down to prepare for bed and there were what appeared to be blood stains on two of the queen beds and spots on the twin bedding. Notified Host of the above only to be told that the cleaning person opened and placed brand new sheets on the beds, we could pull a new roll of paper towels out from the cupboard and they would send an insecticide person out to spray for the ants and spiders (I have all photos) We did not feel comfortable staying on the property due to safety and sanitary reasons. Needless to say, we requested a full refund (which was denied) left the property and found a nearby hotel.

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. We understand that the neighborhood's appearance may not have met your expectations. However, this aspect is beyond our control, and we always encourage guests to research the area prior to booking. Our listing clearly states the absence of central air conditioning, and we offered a portable A/C unit to ensure your comfort, which was not utilized. Our cleaning team meticulously prepared the home before your arrival, and any remaining items in the garage were scheduled for removal. We acknowledge your discomfort with the cleaning product scent and the initial temperature, but these were standard procedures to maintain cleanliness. Regarding the cleanliness issues, we requested detailed photos to address your concerns effectively. Unfortunately, the photos provided did not substantiate the claims made. We strive to maintain a high standard of cleanliness, and our cleaning team ensures that fresh linens and toiletries are always available. We regret that you chose to leave the property, and while we understand your desire for a refund, the claims presented were not sufficiently supported by the evidence provided. We remain committed to offering a comfortable and clean environment for all our guests. Thank you for your understanding.
