LaurieAnn is a wonderful host. She is responsive to guests needs, always interesting and fun to talk to, and provides a very comfortable and welcoming home. For me, the location is a perfect one to visit family, walk or Uber to Lakeshore Drive, Grand Ave., even downtown and Lake Merritt neighborhoods. This trip, LaurieAnn was helpful in ordering a quick-delivery mask, to help deal with the smoke from the tragic Napa/Sonoma wildfires. I've stayed with LaurieAnn many times over the past 2 years- new grandbaby- a comfy home away from home!
