The cottage is in a fabulous location, very near the Stanford campus. It is a pretty little cottage and wonderfully private and safe. It was very clean.

Palo Alto was in the middle of a heat wave and I had not realized that there was no air conditioning. The cottage was hot...when I asked for help, I was brought a big fan which made sleeping possible. Many places in northern California don't have air conditioning as the weather is usually mild, but I will check more carefully next time as this was not an optimal situation.

I do not fault my hosts who were responsive and courteous, but buyer, beware...Palo Alto can get hot...might be a good idea to have a room air conditioner available if it's needed...
