Dave's place isn't exactly where I would have picked but the deal was too good to pass up. We are from Oakland and knew the area somewhat already so the location wasn't an issue. We felt safe the whole time we were there, a full week. Parking was a plenty and neighbors friendly. Dave's place is clean and tidy and access to the backyard was a huge plus with our two dogs. Our host was also very responsive when it came to requests for more coffee pods and toilet paper.
