We use airbnb often, so it was a natural to search there when we needed extra space for visiting family. Jim and Ana were so welcoming, flexible and interested that I did not even feel the need to "inspect" their cottage before our relatives arrived. Our cousin described her stay there as the best vacation she had experienced in years. The garden is idyllic, the place spotless and inviting. The location is in Rockridge, within a few blocks of transportation to San Francisco. Rockridge itself is a delightful shopping area, with original small shops, a great Italian deli, restaurants and coffee shops. Jim and Ana are on site and glad to share information.
