We had such a fantastic stay at this wonderful house. The house is well appointed with all the amenities you could really want and more. The house is a really nice mix of craftsman-style with polished finishes where it matters, including a great kitchen and bathroom setup. We honestly didn't spend much time at home base outside of sleeping, but it provided a perfect launchpad for visiting the Bay Area.
The location was just perfect. Close enough to the 580 freeway to make transportation a breeze, yet the neighborhood was very quiet and comfortable. This little neighborhood is just so charming and within walking distance of a few little eateries and businesses. The street parking is a little tight, but not problematic, and the host provides one off-street parking space that was well received.
We thought there might be an issue because the host was going to be out of town and not there to welcome us, but on the contrary, she provided fantastic timely directions to get us into her home, then again at checkout, and despite not seeing her while we were there, we could tell that we were in good hands, making the whole process a breeze. She was also incredibly quick to respond to any texts or emails, which were few, and provided some good resources about staying in the area (though we didn't need them).
We previously lived within about 2 miles of this house, yet never knew the little neighborhood existed and were really glad we chose to stay here. We will definitely be staying here again the next time we visit the Bay Area and highly recommend that you do too.
