We (two adults, one 4 year old) spent a lovely October week at Venus's place. We had a similar experience to other reviewers. The apartment was quiet, comfortable, clean and well-equipped. Venus made us feel welcome, meeting us on arrival, making contact in advance to find out our breakfast wishes and providing quality food for us to prepare our breakfast. The neighborhood is great with the trendy shops and eateries of Piedmont avenue a 5-minute walk away and BART maybe 20 mins. Car hire around the corner and on street parking not too hard to find.
