Our stay at Melanie's lovely apartment was the highlight of our West Coast trip (a visit to Yosemite NP included)! This ranks at the top of all our time-share rental experience. But to group our stay as "rental" would not do justice to our experience here. This is the true spirit of Airbnb in display, is about sharing the owner's common space and amenities with the guests, is about making the guests truly feel at home. This reminds us of our stay with close relatives, but ahh, none of our close relatives live in such a wonderful and convenient location, with such nice amenities! We love our stay so much that we might have to clear up our 2018 calendar events, and come back, again and again! Thank you so much, Melanie!
