This adorable tiny cottage, is so cleverly conceived that it somehow feels spacious and ample inside. Touches like a mini-bay window looking out on the handsome brick patio and well-tended garden and the two well-placed skylights contribute both to the charm of the place and its light and airy feel. The location is also ideal, speaking as a senior who grew up in the Palo Alto of yore who visits annually, in a neighborhood still dominated by classic California bungalows and gracious shingled Craftsman style houses (albeit considerably grander and better maintained than in my childhood) and mostly tasteful infill, and just blocks from the main commercial streets. (We walked to four excellent and diverse dinners.)

Super convenient, walkable location. Extremely cozy room. Well kept and modern. I felt right at home right away. And easy access with clear instructions, which is always nice. Hope to stay there again.

Lovely, peaceful cottage with great access to downtown Palo Alto, Stanford, Caltrain and more. Nice and cozy for a couple on a short visit. Seamless check-in/out and proactive communication from the host.

I loved my stay in Francis’ guest suite! It was perfect for my time in the Bay Area. The neighborhood is so quiet and parking was easy. Francis replied so quickly and I appreciated the coffee and creamers ☕️. Thanks Francis!
