We had a great time with Margaret and felt at home from the very first day. The place is nice and conveniently located. Margaret is a wonderful host. As stated by others, she has many interests, large knowledge and has travelled a lot, making any discussion interesting. Bear, the golden retriever, left during our stay. Mac, the chihuahua, ended up being friendly to us! But be aware, he bites if approached without explicit invitation. He is a cute dog.
Staying with Margaret was a great start on our 6 months in Palo Alto, we got a lot of information about the area and enjoyed the friendly company! And we got a new hobby: Searching for the origin of Margaret's father. To be continued.
