In general, the room is great. It is spacious, clean, quiet most of the time. No issue with parking. Close to commercial areas and major interest areas in Palo alto. It has a nice yard (if you want to stay in the house for the day time).
The bedroom door could not be locked from outside. I don't remember seeing it mentioned anywhere in the description. If you have things you worry about losing but you don't want to carry around all the time, it is not for you. No hand towels. We had to wash our faces with hands. I only see one bathroom that several guests had to share. Maybe there are private bathrooms in some bedroom (I am not sure).
