The independent home was great. My parents lived here for a month and they really loved the decor. They felt like it was a home away from home! The kitchen was stocked up with a lot of a goodies and a sweet message welcoming my parents :) The host was non-intrusive and always available if my parents or I wanted to get in touch. The neighborhood seemed friendly and safe. There's a direct VTA to safeway which was convenient for my parents. All in all, it was a great place to stay!
