The listing was very accurate. The house was furnished nicely with modern appliances including garbage disposal, washer/dryer. and dishwasher. The aesthetics of this house were very California--oriental rugs, hardwood floors, great artwork, fiesta ware, lots of plants, multiple piano/keyboards, etc. This was a great house for small children with lots to do and the neighborhood was very quite and safe.

Best of all was the gated backyard and the short walking distance to Piedmont Avenue that allowed us to stay there without having to rent a car. Piedmont Avenue has a dairy that serves ice cream, a small theater, at least six coffee shops including Peets, Starbucks. etc., CVS a bank, a multitude of small ethnic restaurants, and lots of vintage clothing stores.

The hosts were very welcoming. Just an overall great experience.
