Alan's place was just fine for a two-night stay while I interviewed at Stanford. Good price for the area (where housing is super expensive) and pretty convenient location. Alan is very responsive to messages, check-in was super easy even though my flight got in late, and he is a very friendly host. The room was cozy and clean. However, some common areas were not the cleanest and quite cluttered. Also the water presure in the shower was super low (could barely wash my hair) and bathroom could benefit from some more/nicer supplies like at most Airbnbs. None of these were deal-breakers at all, but be aware this is a lived-in home for multiple roommates (all polite and nice, btw) rather than a nicer B&B type setting. It worked just fine for my short stay though and Alan even let me play the piano :)
