Michael and his neighbor Shirley and her husband were all great. Had a minor hiccup getting in phone or email contact with Shirley for key arrangements but that may have had to do with us trying to figure out when we exactly might be able to arrive with our car-seat adverse toddler 12 or so hours before ETA -- our drive time was a little longer than we expected in the end and we just knocked on Shirley's door upon arrival when we couldn't reach her by phone. Our stay really all went swimmingly. Shirley graciously lent us an additional space heater -- SF gets a little cold for a couple of Angelenos. Shirley even brought us some homemade jam the next day. We got the history of the bungalow and its previous owners -- father and son from Holland built the cottage from the Sears catalog in the 1930s. Her husband lovingly waters the plants that he can from his front yard to help Michael out. I wish I lived in the neighborhood myself. The house itself is cozy. Kitchen is well stocked with spices. The balcony is great to sit and sun with a coffee. Street parking is really easy. My husband used the Caltrain station about a mile away to go to work. Close enough for a 5 minute drive/dropoff. There's enough hot water for three adults to shower one after another. Washer and dryer works well. Wifi internet connection works. It was a good stay for us -- felt like home away from home. I would highly recommend staying at Michael's.
