I stayed at Amanda's place for 10 weeks while researching at Stanford. The place was clean and was cleaned regularly during my stay. It is well equipped, including a small electric stove, microwave, toaster oven, fridge, and kettle. In the backyard there is a really nice outdoor space to work including a table and chairs, and includes the use of the barbecue.
Amanda was a fantastic host, and went out of her way many times to make my stay great. She was easy going and responded quickly if I had questions. She even organized a few barbecues with friends, including one on Canadian Thanksgiving that definitely helped out with a bit of homesickness.
Having the bicycle available was really helpful, and it was my main mode of transportation. Stanford is about a 20 minute bike ride away. There are two grocery stores in biking distance (Trader Joes and Safeway), and for a few of the heavier deliveries (bottled water, etc) I used Amazon Fresh. For small stuff, there is Country Corner literally next door (they have good, and reasonably priced subs as well).
The neighbourhood is quiet, and the place is near the highway. I was able to get to and from SFO for about $20 using UberPool. Nearby you have Lulu's for Mexican food, Avanti's for Pizza.
I had a fantastic stay and Amanda was an amazing host. I would highly recommend.
