I DO recommend staying with here. Peter and his family are so nice! The house is really good and the room is also good - the big window in the room is really nice to just sit there and read a book. You get your own bathroom. And, even if the room is not separated from the rest of the house, you get as much privacy as if it were. Another plus is that it's close to most tech companies in the valley and also close to Stanford University. If I ever get the chance to get back to Palo Alto, I'll try to stay here again for sure!
