This B&B is a refurbished basement. The paint is new and it comes with a flatscreen TV with cable, a coffee pot, hot water pot, washer/dryer, shower, small fridge (about 2x3 feet), and a few dishes and utensils. There was no DVD player, but--hey--we're on vacation. The fridge had complementary beer, water and condiments, and there were instant noodles, coffee and tea. There is a small but varied collection of books. The street is nice, with 1920s stucco houses and 24-hour parking. Peet's, Starbuck's, a Jewish bakery, Noah's Bagels, 3 yoga studios, Trader Joe's, and more are within walking distance on nearby Lakeshore Avenue. The nearest BART station is far away (35 min on foot). The host was very nice and went out of his way to stay up and let us in at 11:45 pm after a late flight. He also allowed us to have packages sent there. On the downside, the ceiling is low. I'm 6 feet tall and had to continually duck to avoid accidentally becoming 5' 11-1/2". The activity in the kitchen directly above can be loud at times. This isn't a big deal unless you're jet-lagged, like we were, and trying to sleep late. We crammed a pillow into the window at the head of the bed to keep the light out (this worked well). The stairway is tight, and you have to be fairly strong to navigate 50-lb. suitcases up and down it. I bought and left a can opener and a pair of paring knives (get it?). Would I go back again? Sure.
