The first apartment complex on the right side of Del Medio Avenue is Palo Alto Plaza. Park on the street, and enter from the first entrance at 541 Del Medio Avenue. Palo Alto Plaza is a lengthy but manageable bike ride from the Stanford campus. There is a bike path that runs parallel to El Camino Real through Palo Alto to the Mountain View border. The Palo Alto Plaza Apartments are located near a major bus transit hub for Mountain View.
Students living here have a variety of choices.
One of the best options is to catch Route 22 that goes straight down El Camino. Route 35, which starts at the San Antonio Shopping Center, is also very convenient to this complex. Another option is to walk about two blocks to El Camino and Showers and take the 300 Express Route, which stops at the Palo Alto Caltrain station. This route comes by about every 30 minutes and takes about 20 minutes to arrive at the Palo Alto Caltrain station. Transfer to the free Marguerite shuttle to get to campus.
