Tom
Exceptional property and rare value,
especially considering the location in one of
the most coveted neighborhoods in the Bay
Area, or really, anywhere. Meticulously
clean, tasteful interior spaces, and tranquil
outdoor spaces that encourage relaxation
(the hammock was a big plus). Parking is a
snap right next to the entry. Extremely safe
location near the upscale restaurants and
shops of downtown Los Altos. Great vibe
and super communication with the owners.

What stands out for us with this property was the beauty of the location and apartment unit, as well as the quiet neighborhood. Our host directed us to a wonderful walk just outside the door with beautiful views of the Bay Area. The unit is well cared for and very clean. Staying here made our trip to Palo Alto special.

It’s a very good place. My only complaints were the shower which badly needs a new and better head and some of the outdoor furniture was covered up. With great weather and our family coming in I didn’t understand why.

We had a really nice six night stay. The guest house was very nice. Great location and beautiful setting. The beds were quite comfortable. We didn’t use the kitchen except for breakfast but it seemed to have everything that would be needed. Nice parking area right by the front door. Joann was easy to communicate with. We recommend this property.
