We can't recommend Marie's place enough. She was by far the most thoughtful host we've ever had. She offered to pick us up from the BART station when we arrived, which was really helpful and provided much appreciated respite after a long journey.
That same evening she personally drove us to one of the peaks as it was such a beautiful evening and she wanted us to the most of it. Marie then drove us to a Mexican restaurant she recommended to us, which we thoroughly enjoyed.
We haven't even mentioned the breakfasts! Each morning Marie prepared us a fantastic breakfast, with fresh fruit, eggs cooked to our liking, yoghurt, cereal, tea, coffee, toast, jams, croissants. It was delicious and set us up for the day, allowing us to enjoy our trip to the fullest.
The location was good, easy to uber or lyft into town. The place itself was cool, it had a nice, warm atmosphere.
