Rakesh and his wife were welcoming. We had three heavy luggages with us and Rakesh helped us climbed three flight of stairs with them. Water was also offered at a very timely manner by his wife, I think we looked really parched at that time. We thought that was really nice of her. Their place was very homely and we had the opportunity to stay for 5 nights at a cosy place near San Francisco. The bedroom and bed itself was very snug and comfortable. It was more than enough for us to get a good rest after a long flight and after a long day at the city. BART rail transit system (Colma Station) was a very convenient mean of transportation for us to get to the city. From Rakesh's house, it's a 10min walk to the station, and you can get off at Powell St or Embarcadero St to get around downtown. If we were to go back to Sanfo, we'd definitely book again at their lovely home.
