I stayed at Mei Lin's July-August while working on a project at Stanford. I stayed in a room in the basement, 1 of 5 total guest rooms, but we were free to access and use pretty much all of the house including the kitchen, bathrooms, and living areas. There is a Whole Foods and a Trader Joe's nearby so I cooked at home a lot (pantry and fridge space available) as well as eating out at the many places downtown (also: very close to Caltrain station). Mei Lin and Ross were really friendly and kind, even introducing me to friends and inviting us to their neighborhood's 4th of July party. The other guests were also great and I made a good friend! The garden is beautiful as well. Overall a great stay and the hosts have a lot of experience with guests.
