Firstly, what you see is what you get. The views are spectacular. The room is exactly as pictured with a generous closet, a spotless bath, plus a spacious living room and kitchen at your disposal. The deck is something you will want to walk out to experience every morning! The hosts provide filtered-chilled water, and good fresh coffee is always available in the state-of-the-art single serve machine.

The house is in a lovely, quiet neighborhood on the dividing line of Glen Park and Sunnyside with short walks to the bus, trains, and good local restaurants! Hills are steep but totally worth the climb. The neighborhood is safe and charming to walk through and we never felt unsafe any time of day or night walking anywhere. Living space is arranged perfectly for privacy as the master suite and garage are on the first floor and the guest bedroom, bath, living, and kitchen are on the second floor. The general experience was like having your own furnished apartment in the hills of San Francisco!

The hosts are warm and friendly but respectful of your privacy and seem to tailor their interaction based upon the occupant's desire to share. We were treated like old friends and always had a nice experience if we asked for advice or recommendations. Bert the dog is also a sweet, senior Golden Retriever who is docile and unobtrusive but welcomes a scratch and a petting if you so desire. If you're really lucky, the hosts also make fresh-baked cookies and Saturday "Dutch Baby" or steel cut oatmeal breakfast is a nice treat!

Uber makes the whole city very easily available as the location is near so many great neighborhoods. But the real gem of this location- transportation wise - is the proximity to BART. All trains stop at the Glen Park station which is a short, downhill walk; so getting to all areas of interest like downtown, and airports (both San Jose, and SFO) are a breeze.

Our hosts really went above and beyond to try to make our week-long stay easy and fun. We will definitely return!
