"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."

"We were in town for an art opening that included my grandfather’s work, and Tracy’s house was absolutely perfect for a gathering of family who never get to see each other. Just the right combination of privacy for everyone and space for being together. The landscaping is so beautiful. We got some lovely family photos in front of the roses. "
