It's always exciting when a record is broken, a new champion crowned.
In the category Best AirBnB Bed, Fern of Syracuse NY has been dethroned, and the new champion is Elizabeth of Oakland, CA.
Elizabeth doesn't even need the "AirBnB" qualifier - it's simply the best bed I've ever slept in. Full stop.
If that weren't enough, the adjustable shower-massage and thick XXL towel were luxuriating and invigorating after a few nights in Yosemite.
On top of that, there was an empty space in the fridge which our 12-pack of bottled beer slid perfectly into, as if Elizabeth somehow knew exactly how we travel. And no judgement was passed when first beer was cracked well before sunset, nor at the numerous empty bottles the next morning.
But what really made our stay special and memorable was Elizabeth herself. Such a warm, kind, generous, friendly and helpful person.
Pre-arrival communication was clear, timely and accurate. Check-in was easy and seamless.
Oh yeah, and walking distance to The Fox Theater - why we chose Elizabeth's in the first place.
