Conveniently located on a quiet street close to Stanford (not more than 10 minutes from anywhere in Palo Alto) and reasonably priced compared to the dull motels in the area. The place is fairly small and there isn't really anywhere to sit and relax outside, but it is perfect for a single or a couple who just need a clean place to stay at night. Everything was as advertised: internet (average speed but nothing stellar), cable TV (great!), fridge, coffee maker, and microwave. Parking was always available right next to the house and the hosts have even provided a resident's parking tag since parking in the area is controlled.
I visit my family in Palo Alto at least once a year and Doris and Glen's place will be my first choice from now on!
