I wanted eclectic, different, bohemian space that wasn’t being marketed to folks who work in Silicon Valley tech companies. I needed a comfortable and welcoming place to spend the night with my partner in the area, because we planned a drive-in outdoor movie theater date in San Jose. This place fit the bill perfectly!
I use a walker for mobility, so I appreciated that the entry and house had flat entrances and no stairs. There are three of the mildest mannered, reserved quiet small dogs I’ve ever met. They weren’t yippy or nippy. The bedroom was large, with a king bed, towels, Dr. Bonner’s toiletries by the sink outside the bathroom, a fridge stocked with bottled water and coconut water, and the best delicious vegan and organic snacks!!!!!!!!!!! VA provided fruit, cereal bars, oatmeal, soup, and offered us more food. There was interesting art on the walls which we loved. However the bathtub isn’t remotely accessible. It has a very high wall that my able-bodied partner had some trouble getting in and out. I couldn’t access it at all, so I skipped the shower and washed up at the sink.
There was a stormy downpour, so no drive-in. This space was nice enough that it didn’t matter.:-) Even though I heard obvious noises that signaled people were in the house, we felt our privacy was genuine.
I’d love to stay here again, but the tub means not in this room. If I’m solo, I’d stay in one of VAs rooms that uses a shared bathroom with a more accessible bath. I loved the art in the garden and the experience of being in such a creative space.
