Cottage near downtown Palo Alto
I've stayed in at least a half dozen other airbnb places in the Palo Alto/Menlo Park area over the last years, and this location was by far the nicest. It's very quiet and nicely appointed; easy parking and easy access; close to downtown Palo Alto; and above all, Bob was a wonderful host. Very easy to communicate and responses were almost instantaneous. I hope to have the chance to stay again the next time I'm in the area. Highly recommended.

Quiet , Private Studio / Cottage
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was really clean, comfortable, and best of all very quiet. Also, the neighborhood is great. We would definitely stay here again if we were to visit the area another time.

Greenwood Guest House, a Peaceful Oasis
Amy was the perfect host. She was kind and responsive. Great location and beautiful view. We will stay here again!

1BR beautiful, cozy guest cottage in Willow Glen
Everything about my guests’ stay was great. No complaints, only gratitude for a nice, clean, safe guest house where they could walk to groceries, coffee, restaurants in the neighborhood. Quiet and pleasant location. Stuart offered careful instructions and tips - everything we needed to know. Thank you, Stuart!

Guest House in the Woods
Such a serene location! Nestled amongst the trees, this Airbnb will have you feeling like you’re a world away without being far from amenities at all. My husband and I enjoy staying here tremendously. The place was spotless and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Lea was one of the friendliest hosts I’ve ever come across and made us feel warm and welcomed. Can’t wait to visit again!

Cottage near dwntwn Palo Alto, Stanford, Face-book
This was a perfect place to decompress during a busy work trip. The space is beautiful, and the attached gym is such a nice treat! Everything was exactly as described, clean and lovely. I would definitely stay again!

Spacious cottage near downtown & Stanford with AC
This is the third time we stay in Tracy's place, and it's always a great pleasure. The location is great, the house is very well equipped, clean and very comfortable. Tracy responds quickly to any messages and really makes us feel at home. Will keep coming back :)

Charming Cottage near Stanford in Lovely Garden
Julie and I had a wonderful time at Margaret and Phils. It was near a neighborhood I grew up. The accommodations were great, private cottage and beautiful gardens. They have a dog, Sadie, who was a delight. We hope to go back in the future.

La Casita - a quiet studio, Crocker Amazon area!
Very clean, quiet neighborhood, and had everything we needed! Would be happy to stay again.

Cozy Private 1B1B Cottage near Japantown
The cottage was absolutely beautiful! Very accommodating and very clean and quiet. Arthur was the perfect host! Our only issue was the parking. We were in San Jose for a church conference that took place off of 1st Street near 237. We wouldn't get back to the cottage until after 10 p.m. so had to park a block or so away both nights. But, it won't stop us from returning. We will be back for next year's conference. Thanks again Arthur!

Orchard Cottage in convenient countryside location
This was one of the most beautiful airbnbs we’ve stayed in! The house is gorgeous and the property is so cool - our kids loved all of the animals. Laurel is so communicative and helpful. We truly had the best time!

Guesthouse Garden Retreat
This was our first time staying in a guesthouse, and sharing a space with the owners, and I was completely blown away, we both felt right at home, so much so we didn’t wanna leave haha. Victor and Michelle gave us our privacy but also complete freedom to play music, relax on the patio, and roam around their absolutely beautiful backyard. We were able to come and go as we please and always know our things would be safe. The kitchen had everything you could need, the bed was extra comfy and the shower was a DREAM, the whole experience was incredibly cozy and peaceful. This was truly the best place we both have ever stayed, 1000% would recommend!!!

Charming, modern, restorative, private studio
We loved our stay at Julie’s studio. It was such a beautiful space and perfect for our needs. The outdoor area is beautiful and the inside is cozy and so well put together. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood to get delicious food. Would definitely stay again!

Silicon Valley Oasis
Second stay. Still loved it and look forward to staying again. Highly recommend

Digital Nomad Retreat
We stayed a week at the Digital Nomad Retreat visiting family and the redwoods. This Airbnb really is a stellar 5* retreat. We enjoyed the surrounding, of course, and the Airbnb is spotless and perfect. Robert is the perfect host and always a text away. I’m sure we will return to this quiet, adorable get-away in the trees.

Entire guesthouse Santa Clara smart lock entrance.
Katie's place was very comfortable and quiet in a great location with easy access to SCU. It worked perfect for us to enjoy our son's graduation. We would absolutely choose to stay here again.

The Hen House Haven
Quiet, clean, comfortable! Found the bed and pillows to be very comfortable and the bedding extra cozy as well! Kyle was kind enough to alert us to a potential road closure from the direction we were traveling from on the PCH. Quick but enjoyable stay.

Cozy Professorville Cottage
Perfect cottage, with a prime location. I stayed here for a week while on a work trip and it provided me with everything I needed. Thanks Gary !

TheStudio in Willow Glen (San Jose) CA-95125
Silvia is the most wonderful host! Thoughtful and attentive. She has a welcome snack and champagne waiting for you when you arrive. She’s truly thought of everything! The Studio is also great! Private and peaceful. Very well stocked. She’s got everything you’ll need! We loved the private outdoor area to enjoy the sunshine. We stayed for a longer amount of time and she made sure we had fresh linens for the bed and fresh towels. We would absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful private guest house in downtown San Jose
This place was a great place to stay! A few of my friends and I were in town for a night to visit another friend and it was the perfect spot to spend some quiet time together and feel comfortably at home unlike if we had stayed in a hotel. Great amenities, good space with plenty of seating and beds for a small group, and all for a great price. Instructions made it easy to find and made check-in and out super easy to follow.

A Large Private Flat in Center of Silicon Valley
We have stayed with Min a few times now. She is always very pleasant to visit with and very helpful. The rental is always clean and well stocked with everything we need. There is a beautiful park across the street to enjoy. We are very comfortable here. Thank you Min!

Menlo Park 2 Bedr Cottage
Perfect little spot! The cottage was clean, well-maintained, peaceful, and had everything I needed to be very comfortable during my 3-night stay. The neighborhood is gorgeous -- I enjoyed getting outside for exercise every morning. Plus there are plenty of shops and restaurants close by. I would absolutely recommend this place and wish all Airbnbs were so good!!

Stylish, Light-filled Cottage
Mike and Cindy have lovely spot and have made a delightful mini apartment - throughly enjoyed my 3 day stay and found it peaceful and relaxing - with an easy walk to the shops and restaurants - what more could you ask - Recommend!

Redwood Casita
I had a great stay at Jim and Te’s place. The cottage was clean and comfortable, and I could feel their warm hospitality through the well-prepared space. Jim was very responsible throughout the booking and stay. I appreciated the care and would love to stay again!
