Family visit
We needed a place near my aunt in Foster City and Robert’s place fit the bill perfectly! It’s a cute, beautifully decorated and well-appointed home with a large yard even prettier than in the photos. We enjoyed coffee sitting outside. The train does run through nearby but we weren’t bothered too much by it. Robert was quick to respond to some questions and even brought by some new items. Highly recommend Robert’s place if you need a place convenient located between SF and Palo Alto.

Great location in cozy neighborhood near a Safeway & the best ramen in San Mateo - Totoro! Burlingame downtown nearby.
Robert was responsive & quicky arranged service when the AC went out. October surprise heat wave!

Perfect Stay!
We absolutely loved our stay at ANDULORE COTTAGE! We were visiting our adult children in the area and wanted a place to have a small BBQ and the backyard was perfect for this. We found the kitchen to be well supplied with everything we needed. We also enjoyed the location, walking to F45 for a workout and Starbucks for coffee. We also walked to the train station. Everything was clean and just as pictured. We would definitely stay here again.

What a terrific find the Andulore Cottage was for us! Compared to staying in a hotels in the area, having the yard for the abilty to play with our grandchildren was a gift to us. The house was immaculate and inviting and the ammnities were great with a fully equiped kitchen too. The outside gazebo and dining area with a fireplace was great for relaxing after a long day of touring and visiting the area! Many thanks to our host Robert for sharing his home with us for the week!

Perfect Spot
We were in San Francisco to visit my brother. We spent 4 days doing all the touristy things. The house was the perfect jumping off spot. It is comfortable and cute on the inside with a lot of attention to detail and quality. It was 85 degrees in SFO while we were in town and the AC was a welcome treat at the end of a long day of walking and site seeing. Burlingame restaurants are minutes away and we enjoyed dinner there on several nights. Robert is easy to communicate with and responds quickly with any questions you may have. Very much enjoyed our stay here.

Could not recommend more
My family and I stayed and Robert’s beautiful home while in town for a wedding and honestly don’t have a single negative thing to say about it. It is comfortable, well equipped, on a lovely and quiet street, has an extremely convenient grocery store, and is a quick drive to two small city centers with list of restaurant options. But the shining star of this rental is the backyard. It is absolutely glorious. Traveling with a two year old having the comfort of a completely fenced in yard for her to romp around in was amazing. Eating breakfast out there in the morning, and relaxing out there with family at night was truly the icing on the cake of our trip. Robert went above and beyond with being available/communicative when I had questions and was so helpful during our stay. I honestly would recommend this house 100% to anyone looking to stay in the area and plan to do so in the future myself!

San Mateo stay
We had a most enjoyable stay at Andulore Cottage, it was everything we could have asked for! The location was perfect for us as we did not hire a car and found travelling on the Caltrain to San Francisco was no issue as Burlingame Station was within walking distance and trains were very frequent. Similarly the Safeway supermarket was only 3 mins walk away. The house was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Would definitely consider staying here again!!
