Everything is as described. The living space is a decent size for two people and you tend to forget its a converted garage. The mattress was comfortable and the heater in the bedroom works well. You may hear the people upstairs from time to time but it was never really an issue so far as sleeping went. Concerning transport, it's the USA, so clearly its best if you have access to a car! If not, rides from Uber and Lyft are readily available. If you want public transport there is a bus stop at the mall across the road from the street you are staying that will take you to Caltrain (Hillsdale is the nearest stop but it's a bit far to walk). The mall has an ATM, a large-ish supermarket, where you should be able to get food and household supplies, and several restaurants: the Mexican is cheap and cheerful and the Japanese is really quite good. Kenny is a responsive host who gets back to you quickly if you have any queries.
