My son and I stayed at Morganne’s for a college visit to Stanford. If you’re looking for basic amenities at place that is accessible to Palo Alto and the campus, it is a great option. We ended up renting bikes and riding them from Morganne’s to and from campus, which was an easy 20 minute ride. Morganne also had some great tips for us about visiting San Francisco, and was very accommodating and responsive to a very late arrival. Nothing fancy, but clean and cozy as a home base for exploring the area.
