30-40 min walk from downtown Palo Alto. Janet is a welcoming host, who is happy to help in any way she can. The place is a fully private “annex” to the main house, with shower and bathroom. The room has coffee/tea making facilities, a mini-fridge and a microwave. Janet provides free of charge bottled water, grounded coffee, a selection of teabags as well as breakfast cereals and tasty snacks. Overall, very pleasant stay for an extremely competitive price.
