I had a wonderful week-long stay in the cottage. I fell in love with the sweet neighborhood. There are lots of fun restaurants and shops in either direction. I was able to find easy parking on the street right in front of the house and felt very safe going and coming even late at night. I was in town to visit my son at UC Berkeley. It’s an easy straight-shot drive to campus – about 10 minutes. The cottage is very comfortable and well-set up for longer stays with a full kitchen and access to a shared coin-operated washer and dryer. The WiFi is screaming fast and reliable, making remote work a breeze. (I was able to Zoom in for work meetings while my son streamed movies.) The cottage is also super quiet – fully detached from the main house. Dirk was an awesome host – great communication before and during the stay. I’ll definitely be back. Thank you!
