I travel to Palo Alto regularly on business, and I have often stayed in a variety of nicer hotels. Staying in Leland’s house was so much better than staying in a hotel. This was by far my best experience with lodging in any of my trips to the Palo Alto area.
The description is very accurate: it is indeed an immaculate place. I like to make my own breakfast when I travel, and the kitchen was excellent: beautiful, well stocked with all of the cooking equipment that I needed, etc. I really enjoyed eating breakfast outside in the lovely backyard area each tomorrow. The laundry facilities also worked very well, and the bathroom was quite nice.
The location is also extremely convenient. It is on a quiet street that is a short walk from University Avenue in Palo Alto.
Leland was a great host. All of the communication went smoothly.
I would definitely stay here again, and I recommend it highly.
