Melissa's house was perfect for our three-plus week stay in the East Bay. The space was private, quiet, extraordinarily clean and well-furnished and equipped. My husband and I appreciated the spaciousness - especially the sunroom off the master bedroom (a great place to work, dine or do jigsaw puzzles!). We were even able to comfortably accommodate our adult daughter for a couple of nights on the pullout king bed in the living room. The king bed in our room was very comfortable, as well. As a host, Melissa was welcoming, helpful and responsive to a couple of minor questions that came up early in our stay. The location is ideal - on a lovely, quiet street but a very short walk to the shopping and dining on Lakeshore and Grand Avenues, the wonderful Grand Lake Theater and our favorite Saturday morning farmer's market. It's also a very short ride to BART or the ferry to SF at Jack London Square. We highly recommend Melissa's place and look forward to another stay soon.
