My experience was at the top of the 20+ trips I've taken using Airbnb. Ruth and her husband were awesome hosts and they welcomed me as family from the moment I arrived. I was given a special treat of food and Karaoke the night I stayed with them. Ruth is a fantastic chef and her husband Yasuo a tremendous drummer/entertainer. The accommodations were first class. If you are in the Bay Area I would rate them as the first place to stay .
