The moment I arrived at the porch, I knew instantly that it’s going to be an amazing stay. On arrival, you will be welcomed with a cute blue front of the house and beautiful flowers blooming in from both sides. Xiaojing, by the name of Albert, welcomed me at the door to the private space of this Airbnb (a big living space just outside the room - you’ll know when you are there) via their brown side door as I fumbled with the lockbox which is uncommon from the place I live in. The lockbox was simple and easy to use for self check in. They also have a digital card which makes getting in and out seamless. Nonetheless Albert is always home and he’s such an amazing host to hang with. You will never feel awkward or uncomfortable with him around. And what’s even better, if you are a dog lover like me, you will fall in love with Hannah. She’s playful, friendly with a very likeable personality, likes humans and obedient (when she’s told to be). I also met Russell the first night and I felt so loved by him together with Albert. Russell chatted with me even after a long day at work. We had a spontaneous bbq evening and wines at their backyard - it was nothing but amazing. Albert and Russell’s place just feels like home. I like their choice of furniture and the colour schemes. My room has a huge private space which feels like you’re living in another house in a house. What I like about the house are the backyard where it always gets the sun and the window on the top ceiling in the living that allow sunlight to penetrate into the house. You get some nice sunlight and warmth hitting your skin while nestling and lounging in the shared living room. I especially love it when some mornings, i wake up to the aroma of baked scones and coffee drifting to my room. Albert is a great cook and I am quite sure you’ll get to eat his blueberry scones or almond cookies. He makes really bomb guacamole too. This is the first time I get so fattened up living in an Airbnb! Russell and Albert were so loving and kind to me during my stay. They went very responsive and went above and beyond (even drove me to my surf class at Pacifica!) to help their guests. I was so lucky and glad to have a 4-day stay at their lovely house and I would definitely recommend their place - the beach is just one street-walk away! Thanks Russell, Albert and Hannah! I hope the hot tub is happening soon!
