The house was just as pictured. It was lovely, warm and cozy and the beds were very comfortable. Our son and his wife were with us and we had plenty of room to stretch out. It made the trip to Oakland to have Christmas with our pregnant daughter that much nicer. It was a quiet neighborhood that felt secure and parking wasn’t a problem. The alarm system was easy to work and actually was quicker than mine at home. Jake’s instructions to enter the house were easy to understand and though he was off on a trip he was very responsive and helpful.
