Rebecca was really flexible on my arrival time and made accomodations depending on whether I'd arrive earlier or later. Being a first time user, she helped introduce me to the concept and went out of here way to make me feel at ease. She shared numerous tips around the neighborhood, including dining options, tourist attractions and even the nearby jogging path. By the end of our 3-day visit, I felt very much at home -- almost like a local -- at her place and in the neighborhood.
If you want to try out AirBnB for the first time and are a bit nervous, stay with Rebecca. She serves as a great ambassador to AirBnB and will show you how wonderful this type of travel can be.

Rebecca's house is in one of San Jose's most desirable neighborhoods and is a mere three block walk to shops and restaurants. A real pedestrian oasis in a sea of cars. The accomodations had separate bathroom and bedroom giving you privacy. The room was clean, comfortable and cozy... Felt much more like staying at a friends house than a hotel. Her house is a 1927 vintage and she prides herself on retaining the period style, something I value as well.
