This is a beautiful, bright studio. It is very spacious and the kitchen is separated from the main room. And there is a large closet. The bathroom is quite big too. With three windowfronts it has a lot of light during the whole day and offers a nice atmosphere for working from home. The neighborhood is great, calm and beautiful. The location is great too, close to Palo Alto, Stanford and Caltrain Station.
A pro is also the free laundry. The wifi is quite slow and not very reliable, but included in the rent.
I appreciated that Kathy was very flexibel with moving in times. And if you have a problem she will respond quickly.
But sadly there are two downsides:
First, some basic eqipment that I think can be expected in such a studio is not provided (like kitchen linen, paper towels, a lamp on the nightstand etc.) or is either not working properly (leaking coffeemaker, leaking kettle, toaster works only on one side etc.) or is too dirty to use (pans etc.).
Second, hygiene and cleanliness were, at least when I moved in, not given. There were visible stains and human hair everywhere (shower, toilet, floor, in the closet, on the bed and chair), human mouthprints on windows, cut fingernails on the chair, stains in the fridge, the kitchen overall was dirty, mold on the showercurtain and dust everywhere.
So all in all, after I cleand and bought some basic things, I had a great stay in this studio for nearly three month. If you can accept the downsides, this is a good place to stay.
