Brad and Ray have a truly exceptional spacious, modern apartment in a quiet residential area, easy driving or Uber distance to the middle of SF. We felt truly spoiled with all of the extremely generous amenities in the kitchen and bathroom. They have literally thought of EVERYTHING!
We mentioned that we don’t eat meat or dairy, so they made a special point to have high-quality vegan items in the fridge and cupboard for breakfast, as well as a selection of teas and really good coffee, which was a great way to start each day before heading out.
The bed is extremely comfortable, there is a large closet and hangers for clothes, plus extra blankets and towels. There is also a stunning library, consisting of two ceiling-high bookcases with the most interesting, beautiful, and eclectic collection of books. There are also many helpful local guidebooks and maps available.
The only issue for us, sadly, is that we are night owls and had tickets to late shows in the city. Brad and Ray are early birds, and since their living quarters are above, we were awakened around 6:30 each morning. They certainly aren’t noisy people, it was just the sounds of a household waking up above. It wasn’t as bad during the week, when Brad went to work, because we were able to fall back to sleep after he left. But Saturday was a bit busier upstairs.
We mentioned this upon leaving, and Brad was sincerely apologetic, and said he would make every effort to insulate the downstairs from noise in the future. We were so impressed by his kind, positive response and willingness to make improvements for his next guests.
Brad & Ray were quick to respond to all of our questions, and helped us with entry when we arrived late in the dark and rain! There is plenty of street parking and the neighborhood appears very safe. We were blessed with beautiful weather the next day and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Absolutely one of the cleanest and most generously appointed BnBs we’ve ever experienced. Thank you Brad & Ray!
