"This is a good place for a budget focused stay. The furniture was uncomfortable and some items were broken. Ant infestation in the kitchen. Many light bulbs were burned out. Appears to be a leak under the kitchen sink. Many patches in the walls and a stain on the kitchen wall. The filter in the refrigerator needs to be changed. More window coverings would be nice considering the neighborhood. No exhaust fans in either the bathroom or kitchen. Based on the intake process and pictures, I was...

New! Spacious Eicher Home 4 Beds 3 Baths in Mid Town Palo Alto
2.0 out of 10, (1)
"The property could not be opened when I arrived. I was asked to break in using a side entrance. When I entered the property, it was clear that this was far from the "luxury" property that it was described as at the time of the booking. The furniture is old, the bedding damp, and the overall sense is far from luxury. I left after 5 minutes and when I asked for even a partial refund, this was denied. VRBO said they had no responsibility. Never book with VRBO - they won't help you like other...

"I really liked the space in the house. The host was very responsive and helpful. When I asked for an additional fan, I received one promptly. The location was very convenient for us since we drove back and forth to Stanford Hospital. It was only 2 miles away. However, I felt uncomfortable to see little roaches and the floor was not clean."

Luxury home, close to Stanford, Palo Alto, I-101
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (45)
"We stayed here to celebrate my dad's 80th birthday. It was a perfect place, good location and lots of room for family on Palo Alto to join us for a birthday dinner. My only issue was there weren't tea towels to dry dishes anywhere. I checked all the locations the host told me to check and found only bath washcloths. That made it difficult to keep the dishes moving to feed everyone. Otherwise this house is perfect!"

"Great property. Unfortunate beginning to our stay. I had requested (and manager confirmed)an early arrival (a couple of hours early). When we arrived (the door was not locked) residence was trashed--garbage everywhere. Nothing cleaned. No one in site. VRBO did send a cleaning squad as soon as they could and paid for our dinner out while the home was cleaned. But the arrival left a bad impression."
