Mei Lin's house is lovely, has a wonderful garden and the location is great. It is close walking distance to Stanford and all the amenities of downtown Palo Alto which is very practical for someone who doesn't have a car (like me!). A cleaning lady also comes in twice a week to keep all the shared areas clean.

Mei Lin and her family are wonderful hosts. They are very friendly and were also very helpful in orienting me with regard to how to get around town and where to find things. I highly recommend staying here!
