This is our first Airbnb experience sharing a home with the hosts and it was great! Catalina and Javier are warm & engaging hosts that make you feel truly at home away from home. They have a small poodle who is sweet & friendly. His little friend who would visit was also sweet & well behaved.
When were weren't out & about in SF or checking out local venues, (if you like ice cream, go to Smitten or Cream), we enjoyed spending time chatting, with them and their other guests. Watching The 2016 Rio Olympics :)
It was a nice touch to find bottled water, shampoo, conditioner etc. in the room and be treated to light breakfast items, coffee, tea to jump start our day. The place was clean- fresh towels & linens. Room comfy.
Regarding the bathroom having a curtain for a door that one guest noted feeling uncomfortable on their first day- the entrance to it is private. My Daughter & I kept the 2 doors to it closed all the time & didn't have any concern for our privacy in our entire stay. There is a second bathroom for other guest use.
We adventured and walked to the Asby BART station one day- it appeared close on a map. There were a few homeless people hanging about, no shops of note nearby. Took longer to walk there. Don't recommend it. Stick to Rockridge. The walk is pleasant & safe.
Wonderful experience. If we need a place to stay in the SF Bay this would be our top pick if not staying with family.
