The appartment is recently renovated and everything is new. It is lovely, in excellent order and tastefully decorated. The furnished kitchen is very modern with very good pots and other dishes. The appartment is extremly clean and in a very good location, so that one could easily get to the BART station through buses. A big supermarket is in walking distance and a few others in a few minuts driving. Francisco-Javier was extremly responsive to our requests, if something was missing, and willing to fulfill them as soon as possible. I extremly recommend it for people wishing to stay in the Bay Area no matter for a short or long time.
