Cute cottage in a nice location
This is a cozy two bedroom, one bath cottage just off of El Camino Real in Palo Alto. It's a convenient location with quick access to a lot of things but in a quiet little neighborhood off the main drag. The bedrooms are large and comfortable and were fine for my three-person family. The bathroom is a little on the small side for three people to share, but we managed fine. Happy to see coffee provided on the kitchen counter for that first morning!
