Helen's peaceful, lovely studio is exactly what I needed for my short stay in the Bay Area. It's minutes from cute downtown Redwood City (I was there for a short two day conference) and not far from SFO or public transportation. Helen was great with communication even when I came in late for my first night and her hospitality is superior from details on lighting to water and snacks and all my simple comforts. I highly recommend staying here if you need a place to just lay your head while running around the Bay Area.
