The room and bathroom were both immaculately clean and quiet (aside from the inevitable train noise, which you really can't get away from in most of Palo Alto). The house is tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, but not far from El Camino Real. Grocery stores and restaurants at the Village at San Antonio are about a mile away on quiet and walkable streets. Brigitte and her husband were extremely friendly and personable, and truly went out of their way to make me feel welcome in their home. Recommended!
