May and Henry were the BEST hosts I have ever encountered. They were incredibly responsive, reliable, thoughtful, and kind. I rented the house for my 40th birthday weekend to be close to my sister who is battling stage 4 cancer and to my parents who were staying in Burlingame and flying back to Korea that night. This property was pretty much the only one available in that area that was affordable and had everything we needed. It was perfect for our family of four and for having people over for meals. There is ample space but at the same time, the house felt like a cozy home. May and Henry thought of everything guests would need- including a basket of tennis balls and rackets!
The house is in a residential area so it's very quiet yet close enough to stores and the freeway. It was also close to the Aquatic Park and a playground! Unfortunately, the weather was chilly when we were there, but it would be nice for sunny days to take a walk to the lake.
The kitchen is modern and updated. We didn't do much cooking, but it was still nice anyway to have a good kitchen. I also loved the floor to ceiling windows in the dining room/living room area- there was so much natural light which created an open and cheerful atmosphere.
When May heard of our unique situation, she wrote words of encouragement and I was really touched. She even took the time to write me a birthday card, which kind of blew me away. Although I didn't get to take a weekend trip away to the woods or beach for my 40th, it was perfect the way it was because I was able to spend it with family. Thanks, May and Henry for a wonderful stay!!
