It really is what it says it is.
It's a lovely backyard cottage with large windows and a lot of green around for a calming ambience. Even in the winter, it's lovely to just sit out in the balcony taking in the simultaneous quiet and noise of nature around you.
The instructions are very descriptive and the space is very private. You can really go the entire time here without a sense of intrusion on your personal space.
When in the cottage, you get a sense that it was put together DIY (or at least it appears to be). The fittings, magazine selections and unique decoration pieces give off a very "someone cobbled this together" vibe, which made me feel even more at home. It doesn't feel sterile.
The area is quiet and hilly; good for an occasional walk. I didn't take too many, but when I did, I found the views of San Francisco from a distance to be nice.
PS: There's a Black Lives Matter sign right outside the building which I used as a landmark since Uber was consistently wrong about the drop-off location. Although a mere graphic detail, this sign made me a little comfortable walking into the house every time.
