Kawika's place was just as described. It's location is close to the city, either via 101 or 280. The space itself is on the ground level of an old Victorian house, and is equipped with everything I needed in terms of kitchen, bath and bedroom. There is a small but nice living area that gives a bit of room to spread out. The place is perfect for a couple wanting to explore not just the City but also the entire Bay Area. Mine was a last minute booking, and Kawika did everything he could to make it work for me. Good host, good location, good place. Thanks!
