Anthony was a great host! He answered right away when I needed it and we felt very safe in the urban neighborhood we grew up in. You can literally see the Bart station across the street and you can ride anywhere you want at a drop of a dime, or at least until closing time. Very modern and clean, lots of baking supplies , spices and an office/play room that we could easily convert back to a bedroom with a blow up queen mattress and sheets .
The backyard could be used for so many activities. We set up two long tables and had thanksgiving dinner outside followed by a campfire. We did end up using a few logs and really enjoyed our family time outside. There are neighbors upstairs that were not there for most of our stay but overall do not bother us or ask us to turn anything down.
