Our guest stressed to us many times that he and his spouse had such a lovely experience as they loved the home and that the hosts were very attentive. Speaking on personal experience with booking, I want to thank Amanda, Kate, and Ted for being such lovely hosts to our guests. Special thank you to Amanda for being so incredibly responsive and taking time to work things out with me when we had to make last minute adjustments to our booking due to my personal error. Highly recommend this accommodation to those looking to be within close proximity of Stanford. ##### Jaime T.
