We will always give you at least 24 hours' notice, one of our staff will always be there during the showings (which will never be longer than 10 minutes), and you are welcome to either be there or not be there during the showings. We will bunch up the showings as much as possible, and we estimate 2 showings per week, though it could be more. By booking this home, you acknowledge you are ok with this.

The location couldn't be more perfect.

The Stanford Shopping Center is also nearby for your shopping needs.

** Note for guests staying October 12, 13, 14, 15, 25, 26, or 27: We're looking for long-term tenants and will be doing occasional 5-minute showings on a few of those days. The showings will typically be around 6pm, we'll always give you 24 hours' notice, and one of our staff will always be there to do the showing. **

Our guests have raved about their experiences staying here.

Kevin remarked, "We enjoyed the place very much. It was very convenient to Stanford and had ample space for the 5 of us. We hope to come back again."

Nansi said, "Great house and backyard for a family. Clean and nice bonus room off the dining room. Thank you for a great stay."

Brittani added, "Kevin's place is fantastic! All the finishes and appliances are nice and newer, so the home really felt spotlessly clean and well-maintained. Communication was a breeze and the home is in a great, very quiet neighborhood."

Brissi commented, "Kevin's place was wonderful with great value. It was very convenient for my family. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a nice and quiet neighborhood at an affordable price."

Finally, Aisha said, "Excellent location and a very comfortable stay. Kevin was super helpful and communicative, and the house was set up so that everything was well-catered for, including cooking, amenities, and even doing laundry."

Guest Access:
You'll have complete and exclusive access to the home. The owners are gone, but the property manager is always available for questions.

The Neighborhood:
West Menlo Park is a classic neighborhood, filled with a mix of old and new homes of all sizes. Half a block from the home is Alameda de las Pulgas, a main artery. Several blocks away is the border with neighboring Atherton. Sand Hill Road is a few minutes' drive, and Stanford University, Stanford Hospital, and Stanford Shopping Center are only a few minutes further.

Getting Around:
While there is a bus line that runs on Alameda de las Pulgas, public transit in this area isn't great, so you'll definitely need a car, or use Uber or Lyft.

Other Things to Note:
Note that the back of the house has two stories, and on the second story there is a second rental unit. It's a one-bedroom apartment with a full-time tenant. By the lease, the tenant is not allowed to use the back yard, so that's all yours. The tenant enters the property via the side yard to the left of the home, and you'll rarely have any interaction or even notice the tenant.

Also note that during your stay, we may schedule some property showings for prospective longer-term tenants. We will always give you at least 24 hours' notice, one of our staff will always be there during the showings (which will never be longer than 10 minutes), and you are welcome to either be there or not be there during the showings. We will bunch up the showings as much as possible, and we estimate 2 showings per week, though it could be more. By booking this home, you acknowledge you are ok with this.

Interaction with Guests:
The owners are gone, and the home is managed by a property manager who is always available for questions.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Quiet and safe neighborhood. Clean house. Close to Stanford and restaurants. Perfect communication from the host. Only issue was the listing said no cleaning fee but VRBO charged me a cleaning fee. After booking you find out that there is an attached unit that is occupied. Not a big deal as the person is quiet. The adjacent neighbor seems to have a bedroom above the master bedroom. If you are an ultra light sleeper, it could wake you when they move around, but it really is very quiet. Anyone used to apartment living would think it is totally silent. Loved how simple check out is, they don’t ask you to do a bunch of chores like most VRBO hosts. Literally, look the door and go. I would definitely would rent here again and recommend it.
