It's a convenient location with quick access to a lot of things but in a quiet little neighborhood off the main drag. The bedrooms are large and comfortable and were fine for my three-person family. The bathroom is a little on the small side for three people to share, but we managed fine. Happy to see coffee provided on the kitchen counter for that first morning! ##### Chris H. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacquelyn T. 23 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Cute home, centrally located in Palo Alto.
