Sudha's apartment is beautifully decorated and brilliantly quirky. The bedroom itself is simple but has everything you need and I slept well during the trip.
I really enjoyed taking the BART from Fruitvale to the centre of SF (15 min walk plus 20 min train) as I felt I saw a lot more of the city. The local area is residential and has some interesting independent businesses and artistic workshops.
I only saw Sudha briefly on the trip because she was out of town for most of the time, but she kept really well in touch and was very welcoming.
I'd wholeheartedly recommend staying here to anyone who is willing to take a bit more time to get around, but be rewarded for making new discoveries along the way.
