The whole experience with Bina was first rate. She responded promptly to my questions and made special accommodations for our son to stay with us. The snacks and coffee were awesome and helped tie us over after long days walking in the city. Bina's apartment and garden were even larger and nicer than can be shown in photos. Also, her advice and help about the city and our trip to Monterey were greatly appreciated. We can't wait to return! We felt very much at home in her oasis in the city.
