Mei Lin's home is in a wonderful neighborhood in Palo Alto, within easy walking distance to a number of great restaurants, shops, and Whole Foods and Peets. I felt very comfortable in her home, and the room was just as expected - perfect for me while there for business for 3 nights. The bathroom is shared with other guests, but I never waited long. The bed is comfortable. Her kitchen is available for simple use (though I did not have a need for it) and Mei Lin and her other guests were extremely pleasant. The family loves music, which I very much appreciate, though it should be noted to guests that sometimes music is being played into the late evening, so just be mindful of that in your selection if you like to get to bed early.
Thank you for a great stay, Mei Lin.
