@ Marbella Lane -Cozy 1BR Studio in Palo Alto DWTN
7.0 out of 10, Good, (9)
"This unit was very quiet despite it's closeness to the downtown area and the university. Very easy to walk to get coffee or food. The street parking is fine. There was some confusion with the listing, part of it said we could add a guest for one night for 25 but when we asked the property manager they said no. Lesson learned to select a different vrbo which will allow 3 guests. Overall a very nice unit while visiting Stanford for Family Weekend."

NEW! Mins to Palo Alto, Stanford, Meta w/Firepit, Pet-Friendly!
8.0 out of 10, Very Good, (1)
"The house is okay but a fixer upper. There were a lot of places where you could see repairs were made, dyi projects, or missing pictures-artwork. Paint was not touched up or peeling in a lot of places as well. The beds and couch were also not comfortable and caused back issues. The neighborhood was safe and quiet but we never felt very comfortable. The host was very nice, helpful and quick to respond if we needed anything.Important note: East Palo Alto and Palo Alto are NOT the same thing. "
