The house is very interesting,there are a lot of books and arts and the feeling that you appear in past times.I Like Elizabeth and Philip,very kind and smiling hosts,Elizabeth is very artistic and I enjoyed talking with her,she is funny and beautiful person!House is fine,if you have a car,there is just 15 mins to get the civic center (like Castro and Market streets), it's a bit far from metro,but it takes only 10-15 mins to get the civic center by the train as well.Enjoy this different experience of typical American life:)
