We knew we had chosen the right place to stay over Christmas when we arrived at a colorful front porch decorated with pine boughs and lights. The living room also had a nice tree. The house itself was warm and cozy, painted with vibrant colors and furnished with mid-century furniture. Bathrooms, electrical and plumbing are all updated to modern standards, with beautifully incorporated retro design elements. We loved the "Pendleton" floor, the well-equipped kitchen, and the flowering vine filled back yard (with play structures for kids!) We also loved the very friendly kitty, President Fluffington, D.C. Neighborhood was very conveniently located (close to Temescal restaurants, Bay Bridge access, College, Ave., etc). Parking a bit tight sometimes, but not a problem (typical urban neighborhood).

Steven was very helpful and responsive to questions.

We recommend this place and would definitely rent it again.
