Mei Lin's house is a beautiful property on a quiet, but central, street in Palo Alto. It's an easy walk to the Caltrain with regular connections both north to SF and south to Mountain View and San Jose. Mei Lin and her husband are fantastic hosts - communicative and helpful on check-in and very open to the use of the shared space in the house (although I was working late hours and therefore didn't get a chance to take advantage). The room is small (single bed) but spotlessly clean and with thoughtful touches; same goes for the bathroom. For a business traveller, the WiFi is also very fast and reliable - a welcome advantage!
I look forward to staying again!
