This cottage is a converted garage in back of a restored period home with a delightful, floral yard with plenty of space for sitting, eating, relaxing. The neighborhood is exceptionally quiet, except for the occasional train (which is barely audible if the windows are closed). I actually love the sound of distance trains. The bed--one of the most comfortable beds in which I've had the pleasure to sleep. Well-organized space, perfect for dropping in after a day of work or touring. I travel to this community monthly--within walking distance of downtown Palo Alto is by far my favorite place to stay--easy walking distance to many restaurants and shops, walk to the train (so access to SF is easy), and a serene, lovely neighborhood. I hope to return!
