The host and home were everything promised in the listing and then some. Karin has, I hope, become a friend and now that I have a residence in the area I hope we will see each often. Her home is lovely, warm, welcoming, a real oasis offering a respite from the rigors of rental hunting in Oakland. The room was as promised, the shared bathroom spotless and accommodating, the kitchen well equipped. Karin is marvelous to spend time with, will answer any question and provide directions to whatever you are looking for. Glenview is fun and provides a multitude of services. It was an honest to goodness PLEASURE staying with Karin, one that I would highly recommend to anyone.
