Beth is a lovely person. The house location is fine for any events you might be attending at Stanford or in Palo Alto. Beth and her son make everyone feel welcome. The room did not have a closet. The shower was outstanding, but it was upstairs. The downstairs toilet was fine, but not attached to the room where are staying. Beth was great to offer food space in her fridge and a parking space in her driveway, so you did not have to park on the street which is not well-lit. The house has seen its best days and carpet needs replacing. Everything is expensive in Palo Alto. Uber was 2X or more each time I tried to use it. Use the regular Taxi service and save some money.
