The phrase "above and beyond" does not even begin to describe what a warm, generous, gracious host Linda is. I've used AirBnB a lot, but this is the first time I've stayed at a property where the host was onsite. Linda's communications were clear and immediate. She bent over backwards to ensure that my arrival was easy, and she made her schedule incredibly flexible to accommodate mine, which was often in flux. Her house is beautiful, spotlessly clean, well apportioned, and charming, located in a very safe and picturesque neighborhood kind of on the backside of SF, but offering wonderful views and surroundings, especially for nature lovers. The bed was incredibly comfortable and plush, and Linda had thought of everything to ensure my needs were met -- snacks, water, bath robes, blackout curtains, and even a very sweet welcome note. She and her mother were both pleasures to talk with, and both mornings Linda offered full, made-to-order breakfasts that would put many fine restaurants to shame. Just when I thought she could do no more, Linda offered to drive me the 35 minutes into the city to my morning appointment when she learned my destination wasn't particularly close to public transportation. But wait! There's more! When I finally made it home that night, I was offered snacks and a Peruvian cocktail. Linda is lucky she had another guest arriving shortly after my check-out or I might have refused to leave. Heartfelt thanks for everything you did to make my stay so wonderful, Linda!
