Staff were very communicative from beginning to end. For the most part it is cute and has nice aesthetics.
Seems like Airbnb rates are fairly high in this area, but the rate went up as I was booking it, as I was asking questions about it with whoever manages it. Upon arrival someone left their purse in the backyard, so I we had to communicate back-and-forth until we made arrangements for them to pick it up from the garage. Small inconvenience.
First night we had a noise complaint from neighbors after 10PM. We were listening to music in the living room at a level that we didn’t feel was loud enough for a neighbor to hear. There were 4 of us, tired and listening to an album that just dropped that night. I learned later that we can pretty much hear each talk (doors closed) from the next room and down the hall. Walls are pretty thin, so room only with folks you are totally comfortable using the restroom near :)
It has the bare necessities. Be mindful. No extra towels or linens. Kitchen has basic amenities also. I didn’t cook much while there but other than wine glasses, there were none. I did put in a suggestion for them to buy some :) Seems like they are still pulling things together a bit.
There is a washer and dryer in the garage, Make sure you have access codes to garage and broom closet ahead of time. Or you will have many conversations like I did with my host. Other than that, there are cameras in front AND back yard, so if you are comfortable with that, it’s a decent stay.
Hosts were VERY nice people. For me,
an overpriced stay. BUT, I am from Los Angeles, not the Bay Area. I hear it’s pricier there.
