There’s so much to say. We flew into Oakland Airport, which is approx. 15-20 minutes from Danielle’s home. The home is fantastic- we had a party of 6 and all of us couldn’t have been happier with the accommodations. One person is 6’ 5”, so he really appreciated the California king bed; but, please note, all of the beds are quite comfortable (and the breeze that comes in at night makes for great sleeping).
The kitchen is very well stocked with an induction stove, fresh coffee beans, coffee grinder, and coffee press (just to name a few things). The whole house has up to date appliances.
One of our favorite places, in the house, was the outdoor patio area. Part of it is under shade while the other half is not. There is plenty of seating on the patio. Can’t decide if it’s better in the early morning or later in the evening- just know that whenever you are sitting out there, it is so relaxing. The neighborhood is very quiet and the view is spectacular.
The house is also close to the main road leading to San Francisco. It didn’t take us long to get there at all. We drove in one day, but used public transportation (the BART and the Muni) on another occasion.
Danielle is very accommodating. She met up with us soon after we arrived to show us around the house. She also checked in (through messaging) several times with some travel tips, restaurant recommendations, and just to see if we had any questions or needed anything. Her hospitality is above and beyond.
