We stayed here for over 5 weeks while my wife was recovering from cancer treatment at Stanford. The prime location and quiet, peaceful surroundings made it worth the expense. Marcus and family were gracious hosts and eager to respond to our requests. Top amenity for me was a separate work space which also gave me a place to lock up my bike. Minor complaints would be the uncomfortable furniture and bedding (which might go unnoticed for shorter stays). Overall, it was a great choice for us. Highly recommended.
