Deb is an incredibly open-minded, thoughtful, and genuine person. I felt at home the entire length of my stay because she helped me feel like I was part of a family. I didn't have a car and it had been my first visit to the West Coast, so sometimes she would offer to drive me to the train station, to go shopping, or to see different parts of San Mateo. She was engaging but also gave a lot of personal space. She made sure my stay was as comfortable as possible, and I would recommend her to anyone who wants a place to stay in the Bay Area.
