Our arrival time changed a few times, as our plans changed, and Marlene kept in touch with us to make sure we knew where we were going and what to do when we arrived. She was available when we checked in, and showed us around the place (offering to help us with our luggage).

The pool house was just as advertised, and a very comfortable and quiet place. Everything was clean and well kept up, and the were snacks and beverages available for us during our stay.

My husband worked out of the pool house during our stay, so made almost constant use of the excellent internet access. He found it a very peaceful place to work. I commuted to San Jose for the week. It took me about 20 minutes as long as I left by about 7:10. Though I was envious of my husband's "office," the commute was not bad at all.

The nearby town of Los Gatos is a cute place with many restaurant choices. We recommend Cafe Dio, a coffee shop in town. All in all, an excellent stay.
