We have lived in this charming house for three months and felt very comfortable! The house is situated in a peaceful and quite green residential area. Shops, the campus and the train station are within easy reach by bike, and the train (Caltrain) allows for an easy transfer to San Francisco! For trips to the outdoors (e.g, to one of the many regional or state parks) a car is definitely an advantage.
The house is spacious and the decor is pleasant, tasteful and practical. Everything was clean, in good order and perfectly according to the description. In the kitchen we found everything we needed. I liked the living room particularly well though there is not so much direct sun. Yet thanks to the wall fully comprising of windows it is well lit and very friendly.
The garden, which was exclusively available to us, offers both sunny and shady areas, which is a plus in sunny California. In March, as the Glycinie began to flourish, sitting there was just wonderful!
Laurel, her husband and her son are pleasant and very helpful hosts and were always remarkably quickly accessible. There was only one time when Laurel was professionally particularly busy for a few days, and afterwards apologized for answering her e-mails only with a slight delay.
We have enjoyed our stay in this house and want to thank Laurel and her family for their kindness, their understanding of our needs and their great helpfulness. Next time we are planning a trip to this region, we would definitely like to stay in her house again.
Thank you Laurel!
