One Night Short Drive to SFO

Was looking for a cozy place for one night with a close drive to SFO. Was the perfect place for what we needed! Clean, cozy, and responsive, respectful host.

Great Location (Stanford Hospital 3.3 Miles Away)

The owner was wonderful, accommodating, and kind. I needed a place to stay while my wife was having surgery at Stanford Hospital. The property was convenient enabling me to get some well needed rest. The property was well appointed and comfortable.

Great Space

Very clean and neat! Nice neighborhood and easy check in. The only drawback for me was the lighting. It was very low lighting at night and no way to increase the lighting.

Awesome Property Close to Stanford University

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful property in Palo Alto. Perfect weekend escape for my wife & I as we rooted on Long Beach St softball at the Stanford Invitational. 9 minute drive from the stadium. Couldn't be happier with the proprty, hospitality & communication from the hosts. We will be back in the future!sts.
