I had the blessing of staying at Zoe's beautiful home for about 9 days, as I was in need of a sweet place to land after returning from a few weeks away at a zen center. Walking into her home was so comforting, and I felt immediately at ease. Zoe keeps the house in such wonderful condition: the kitchen is large and open, making cooking meals inviting to guests, and the room itself (Blue Room) is a soft blue with a nice queen bed and lovely antique wooden furniture to hold all your goodies. I was able to relax and focus there, as the neighborhood is very quiet overall and close to great necessities (such as Berkeley Bowl). Zoe is a kind woman who engaged in meaningful conversations when she was at home, and also provided lots of space for privacy and internal time. The thing I loved the most was that during my stay I felt like I part of a home environment, where respect, thoughtfulness, and cleanliness mattered and were upheld. Thank you, Zoe, for a lovely stay! I would return any time...and hope I do.
