Maria was really a fantastic host! She was able to accommodate my early arrival and late departure, and there were no issues whatsoever with my living space. The whole house appeared to be very clean. My bed was downright luxurious, my closet was huge, and the bathroom was spotless. The house was very quiet at night.

If you need to be in downtown Palo Alto or Stanford, note that the house is about 3.5 miles away. Walking isn't a practical way to get around, but with a bike or car you'll be fine. Caltrain is close by.
