This was my first Airbnb experience as a guest. It superceded my expectations. Not only is it tastefully decorated, Joanne has thought of the extras that make this special. I checked in late, was tired and hungry. She brought me a basket of healthy snacks and beverages that was perfect for late night eating. After long days checking out the bay area (my first time in California) , I looked forward to a night of rest in the comfortable bed. I spent the mornings drinking coffee on the garden patio soaking up the local culture. Her location is a quick Uber ride to and from BART train station. I even enjoyed a lovely sunset ferry ride from San Francisco to Oakland to get back to her place. My experience in California was a wonderful one and staying at Joanne's contributed to that.
