We really felt at home in Keith and Thaisa’s charming little Airbnb (actually, not so little at all), where we stayed for just under one month. Tucked away from the main road, and looking out onto an enchanted little garden, we enjoyed the peaceful environment and the thoughtful little conveniences. The shelves were stocked with interesting books (including a couple written by Thaisa herself!), the kitchen was well-equipped (including a wonderful new stove!), the multi-function front room (dining/office/art studio) is surrounded by windows and views of the humming-birds and laid-back cats. Fresh lemons hang from the trees (we were given permission to help ourselves). We’d read the reviews about cleanliness concerns, and so did our own little pre-settle-in clean-up to ensure we were comfortable. Both Keith and Thaisa were very responsive to any questions; and popped over immediately if we needed help with anything. We had our own parking spot, which was a great added convenience. The surrounding neighborhood is great for walkabouts, or hiking little trails, and is filled with quaint stores and delicious eateries. Supermarkets are in very close proximity, and the Bart (only 15 mins walk away) is an easy ride into San Francisco. The Airbnb has the allure of a cozy cottage-style homely-feel, we were very happy there.
