Wow. This place did not disappoint.
1) Farzad was very helpful and quick to reply to messages. He was also very attentive and accommodating. We never actually saw him during our week-long stay, although he was in his separate downstairs studio for some of our stay. But Farzad was very cognizant of us staying upstairs, and was respectful of our space. Honestly it didn't even seem like he was there.
2) The location is in a nice quiet no-nonsense locals neighborhood. It's close to Twin Peaks, so it's pretty centrally located geographically. You will likely need a car if staying here, but street parking was plentiful, and a garage space was available to us. Two supermarkets nearby (Mollie Stones and Safeway).
3) The house was wonderful. Stylish and comfortable, with all the amenities one needs. The kitchen was well-stocked, with plenty of Nespresso/Keurig style coffee pods. There were also plenty of snacks and cookies. The pantry cabinet was filled with selections of teas and cooking spices/seasonings/oils. The refrigerator even had a selection of beers for us if we so wanted. The kitchenware was higher-end, and not the cheap stuff that many Airbnb's will stock. This felt like items one would use in their own kitchens.
The furniture and design was contemporary and comfortable. The three bedrooms were very comfy, and we all slept well. The Apple TV was nice to have, although we were never home enough to use it. But it was nice to stream music through it while we were in the house. The AV system is quite nice. Again, something that one would have in their own home. Keyless entry was convenient and easy.
Overall, Farzad's place gave us the impression that he was mindful of his guests comforts and needs.
We will definitely try to book Farzad's place next time!
