Colleen and George were excellent hosts! They allowed us our privacy yet interacted with us at the start and end of our trip making us feel as though we were truly welcome into their home. That was a new experience for us that we truly appreciated. The space itself was beautiful and the pictures are all accurate. Everything was clean, neat and had a "homey" feel to it. Phone reception wasn't great (which of course isn't their fault) but they had REALLY FAST wifi and a land line which we could live and work with. Staying here allows you a different sense of the city,as you're among the "countryside" of Oakland allowing you to enjoy the fresh air and the hills. We had a wonderful time and will definitely come back! Thank you for making our anniversary trip that much more memorable!
