Tommy is a wonderful host and we had a truly lovely stay. The check-in and welcome was so very warm and we learnt quite a bit about the history of the house. The cottage is so very charming, being adorned with flowers and filled with literary classics. Bright and airy, in a safe neighborhood conveniently located with nearby dining, playground and the Caltrain station. Easy to get to from highways and a short distance from downtown Palo Alto. A superbly equipped kitchen chockfull of cookware and even some dried food, oils and spices, a clutch of chickens by the entrance, and a lovely garden setting and more, made for a stay to remember.
