This is a good place to stay, and Leon is a good communicator, and friendly in person (but not in your face!). If your plans include walking back from the BART station at night (which Leon did advise against, but I did anyway...), well, it wouldn't be my preference, due to some aggressive begging closer to the station. But if you have other ways of getting around, or at other times, then I'd have absolutely no qualms about recommending the place, or Leon as a host.
