This beautiful home in the quiet suburbs of Redwood City is a wonderful place from which to work or travel into the city. Ella is an exceptional host, who has carefully thought through how to provide for and welcome her guests, and I felt immediately comfortable in her accommodation. It is only a short walk from local services (restaurants, bars, supermarkets, coffee shops) and an easy cycle ride back into the centre of Redwood City (or drive, of course). The room I rented faced onto a lovely garden, and working each day with the sunlight and fresh air through the open door was a real treat. This was a really fantastic find - perfect for me - and I heartily recommend staying in Casper's House if you are looking for a friendly retreat close to Bay Area facilities. (Casper, by the way, is canine, endearing, but very choosy about his friends .. I may need to return to see if I can win him over!)
