Dan,Tracy, son Sam and staffer Marguerite ALL made me feel welcome upon arrival and during my stay. This is a busy household and food prep is a big part of their lives. Works for me! Their home is in a relatively central Berkeley location in a very walkable, older and well-maintained neighborhood. Completely quiet area at night. The house is in excellent condition, notable for its age, quality of construction and maintenance. I stayed 4 nights and sampled both rooms. The hosts are generous with their time, home and food. And I intend to return the next time I'm in the Bay Area. Excellent!
