Helen's guest cottage is delightful - bright, clean, quiet, private, and just a short drive to downtown Palo Alto. The bed is extremely comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. For anyone with a literary bent, the cottage is stocked with a great selection of books. And there's a even a piano! All in all, a great place to stay. Dinner at Rangoon Ruby, a Burmese restaurant located at 445 Emerson St. in downtown Palo Alto was a highlight of our visit. Highly recommended!
