Hosts: Lee and Rachel responded promptly when we suddenly needed a house for four adults and two small kids. A different host through Airbnb had cancelled the day before our trip! Very stressful, but fortunately everything worked out. Lee and Rachel were very responsive with any problems we had during our stay.

House: This house is stunning, very modern and the bathrooms amazing (each bedroom has a bathroom, two have baths in addition to showers). Amazing surround views of the Bay. The house matched the description apart from one thing: the third bedroom is technically an office with an air bed which we had to make ourselves. Due to this one of our kids ended up sleeping with us as the air bed had a puncture (we had a travel crib for our other kid which we set up in that room). If you do want a three bedroom place with all the things that bedrooms come with (ie real bed, bedside tables, lamps etc) then the third bedroom may fall short for you.

Side notes that are not faults with the house but definitely factors for people traveling with kids/ elderly/ disabilities: We traveled with two small kids and the stairs were a bit stressful. Also glass tables that are scary with younger kids but older kids would be fine. I would also say not disability friendly as there are stairs into the house and two bedrooms upstairs.

Location: If you are looking for a place in San Mateo, you will probably be happy with this house. Trips to San Francisco are definitely a trek, however, and you will need a car. There are few amenities that are walkable although there is a great playground right across the street. The area was very peaceful.
