Alex and Beatrice’s place was one of the most hospitable places I have stayed long term.
Overall experience: I was clear about my reason for stay (internship) right from the go and that made it easier for them to accommodate me and make me feel comfortable . I had access to their fully stocked kitchen, washer /dryer and the best part of the house, their backyard where they grow fruits and herbs.
The location: The house is in a quiet and beautiful neighbourhood. Close to Santana Row and the bus stop.
The room: My room was in the top floor with an attached bathroom. The window brings the cool breeze in but it does get hot midday and Alex was kind enough to put in a portable AC.
The hosts: Both Alex and Beatrice are great conversationalist and well travelled. They make you feel right at home but also respect your privacy. You can often hear Alex vibing to great music while you cook your dinner in the kitchen.
I highly recommend the place for medium to long stay.
