Erika was a welcoming, hospitable and all around awesome host. The room was a spacious guest bedroom with great lighting both day & night, with a comfortable bed and plenty of storage space for clothes, etc. Erika also provided breakfast daily, and even shared some of her delicious soup. (You can ask her for cooking pointers, as she's quite an accomplished cook.) The house is close to bart which made getting to SF and downtown Berkeley easy. Highly recommended.
