Mei Lin was a fabulous host. She was very kind and gave me clear directions to her house and I could get there without a problem. The room was also nice and clean with towels and a closet available. It was quiet at night and I could sleep comfortably. The shared bathroom was clean with your own drawer, and I could also use a nice multimedia room with a table and large TV set, and her kitchen with cups and glasses. I didn't use this, but I was allowed to use her washing machine, too. She had other guests during my stay and they were all nice. I chatted and had fun talks with some of them including her husband. Her house is very close to the Stanford Univ. campus and there is a whole foods and cafes in a couple of blocks away. It is only 10-15 minutes away from the cal train station and downtown by walk. I would definitely wish to stay at her place when I have another chance to visit the area.
