We stayed at Garden View Room and loved this beautiful cosy house of Annelène, she give us a warm welcome and we felt really home at her place. She offert breakfast (organic tea and yoghurt with granola and banana). We were free to take drinks and use her kitchen. Her house is in Menlo Park in the middle of Silicon Valley and just next to Palo Alto (5/10 min by car) there plenty place to park your car in front of the house. Her guest are also super to meet and to have a chat with like employees of Facebook or start ups who work on interesting new concepts all connected with the Tech business. We were near all HQ of companies as Google, Yahoo, Facebook, Apple and LinkedIN. The area is very inspiring if you want to feel how the tech business works today. On each terras in Palo Alto or Menlo Park you see people in meetings in front on their Apple computer. People work every where. If you like to have vacation in this area and like to enjoy, you can go to the Pool for a refreshment or visit San Francisco which is about 30 minutes by car or train. For us Garden View Room was the perfect place to stay and Annelène became our best host every and felt like staying with a friend. We Loved it and we sure recommend her place to stay! thx again Annelène, Best Frenzy & San - The Believers - www.believers.com
