Photos don't really do justice to how cosy and beautiful this suit is and it is beyond words how welcoming and kind a host is Maria. This experience keeps Airbnb on my list of the best human innovations and herself on the list of the most interesting people I've met in the Valley.

The beautiful house of Maria and her family is situated remotely in the most lovely and secure neighbourhood in the Valley - Redwood city Emerald hills. We had bad luck with the weather so we missed a walk in the Edgewood park, but we haven't missed the night walk through the maze of astonishing residential houses with occasional views of the valley below. It is hard to imagine that only 10 mins drive from the valley one would be welcomed by that silence you only get high up in the hills and by deer roaming freely at night.

The suite is really really nice. Everything is very beautiful, stylish and interesting. The room was very clean with a comfy bed and a small beautiful shower bathroom. We were welcomed by a small coffee/tea machine and fruits Maria delighted us with, fresh towels, a small terrace in front for catching the morning sunshine.
It is a perfect place for a couple that just needs a bit of chill and peace.

Maria was the best host possible. She was very fast to communicate when we were coming very late, highly respectful to our privacy and just amazingly generous: she invited me and my girl for a coffee and even for the lunch with her and her son. I left the place astonished by these kind, interesting and generous people - Maria's son even drove us up towards SF.

A great and true Airbnb experience.
