Everything was as described. The house, the room, the location and the host, Johanna, who was wonderfully welcoming. The room cooled down nicely at night in spite of the hot weather, and the bed was very comfortable.
It is an easy bike ride to Stanford, Palo Alto and Menlo Park, yet it feels like you are living in the countryside. I even got to see the white iggret doing his "fly by" over the creek several times. And amazingly, there was water rushing by in the creek in spite of the drought.
