If you like to stay in places that are just as interesting to look at as to stay in, this is one you should check out. If you like and appreciate thoughtful modern design, you need to stay here. If you want a place that is peaceful and, to use the Airbnb descriptor - magical, you need to stay here. We loved the modern design and really cool efficient use of space and the tranquil garden setting. I just wish we were there when it was warmer and sunny so we could sit in the garden outside. Colin was super quick in his communication and was there to greet us when we arrived. This is a perfect hideaway with easy access to oakland and berkeley. Oh, and the bed was really comfortable - meant for sleeping in. We were up visiting our son at Cal and it was just a quick 10 min drive over. We can't wait for another time we can visit so we can stay here again!
