I arrived to California to accept a new job. David's home was my first experience in California and it was fantastic. Anyone who stays in his home will find his hospitality second to none. A short 7-10 minute walk to the Rockridge BART was a premium for me! David spent 2-3 hours giving me a tour of the area, culminating with lunch at height of Berkeley giving me my first big view of the Bay.
I was offered food and a beer daily which was nice. The home itself is cluttered with knickknacks and collectibles which is nice if this is your thing. If you're okay with that, you can't go wrong with this selection. David continues to help me navigate the Bay even though I'm no longer a guest in his home!
