I had a very nice stay with Hao. The room was nice and clean (although it was a little cramped for my big 29inch luggage and trolley bag as there was a dressing table and a computer table as well in the room). It was really nice to have a private guest bathroom all to myself, and I noticed that Hao cleared out the trash in the bathroom everyday.
Hao is a very helpful host and he even has a printout of the locations and details of various attractions, restaurants, supermarket and pharmacy around the area.
As I was travelling with quite a bit of luggage, it wasn't as easy to get to Hao's apartment on foot from the nearest BART station. But overall, it was a pleasant and comfortable stay.
