The neighborhood is very nice and the apartment very accommodating. It seemed like all the dishes and appliances in the kitchen were new. She had everything you'd need; including orange juice and banana nut loaves for breakfast. It was very convenient to the BART station. It was a bit of an uphill hike from the road with the luggage, so if someone is not in good health or has quite a bit of luggage, it might be a hard place to stay. For us, it was PERFECT ! Very quiet, too.
