We enjoyed our stay at Tommy's place. He is a flexible and accommodating host, happy to help in every way, while not infringing on one's privacy. Communications with him are excellent. The characterful space (accurately described) is masterfully configured on the top floor of a historic home (note: no elevator) in a quiet residential neighborhood, a welcome retreat from the hustle and congestion of the surrounding area. It is walking distance to the shops and restaurants on California Avenue and a short drive to Stanford (walking distance to a game!). It is a comfortable space and Tommy provides thoughtful extras like oatmeal and granola bars for breakfast, toiletries, and fresh cut flowers from his garden. The mini-kitchen is well enough equipped for basic meal preparation. Wifi is good and there's even a printer if needed. We hope to be back.
