I booked this for my parents, so I'll let them share their thoughts!

"My wife and I were visiting our daughter in San Mateo and needed a place to stay for just one night before heading off for some wine tasting in Sonoma. This was a great alternative to a hotel. This is a cottage behind a family residence. It is light, modern, and in a residential area that is easy to get to and well worth the 5 minute ride up from US 101. Groceries, stores, gas, restaurants are within a 3 minute drive. Even at the height of the morning rush hour, San Mateo was less than 20 minutes away. This is a great alternative to another stay at one of the many chain hotels in the area."
