We had a great stay at Germaine's place! We stayed during the week of July 4th, and had amazing views on the fireworks shows. It's super convenient if you have a car, because it has a designated parking space AND you are on the highway 280 (and to 101) in a few minutes. It's also close to the BART, so it's super easy to get into the touristy parts of town. Germaine left us some snacks and enough to scrounge a breakfast together, which was really nice. I definitely recommend staying here!
