Andrea is a fabulous host. She makes the check-in and out process easy. The carriage house is a 1/2 block from shopping and restaurants so after a day out we walked and had a nice meal at local restaurants. The house is stocked with snacks and coffee/tea -- making breakfast a snap. It was a cozy comfortable spot for a nice weekend getaway for my husband and I. And the shower pressure is great. She has lots of towels stocked and a fully equipped kitchen. We didn't cook, but it was nice to have the option. The place is 15 min from downtown and 45 min from Golden Gate State Park where we hiked. I can't recommend it enough. The pictures are spot on and our experience was wonderful.
