Edward's home was very welcoming and inviting. Lucy was great, too! She joined us for dinner outside our first night there! The apt is just as described, very clean, with everything you will need. The location is great, we stayed here and took the train into San Francisco and saved a great deal of money this way. The BART is close by, as well as many great shops and delicious restaurants. Edward was a generous host, greeting us upon arrival and leaving breakfast items and coffee. On our last day we had early morning alcatraz tickets and he was nice enough to allow us to leave our car in his driveway and leave our bags inside the door. I can certainly see why people stay here over and over, we definitely will if we are ever back in the area!
