Me, my wife and our 7 year old had a lovely serene, comfortable and cozy stay at Dan's for 2 weeks. Nice backyard house in a safe location on a tree-lined street with street parking. The house felt private & more spacious than the photos let on. House was nicely clean and appliances were as new. Kitchen and bathroom were very very well stocked with supplies. Bed was very comfortable and dan had some toys and games for kids besides a little play set/swing set in the backyard. Kitchen had a stove, dishwasher, fridge and a microwave. Comfortable and cozy are 2 words that keep coming back to my head.
Of course my 7 year old had a great time with the tortoises and chickens which makes this place lots of fun/novelty for the kids. Dan also has a couple of lovely dogs in his property which occasionally came out in the backyard to say hello. About the only thing we missed was a washing machine/dryer to do our laundry. Wifi worked well. Dan lives at the front house and was friendly and always responded quickly or was around when we had a couple of questions.
There is a safeway within 5 mins drive, a gas station, a citibank ATM among a bunch of other shops. The house felt convenient in terms of access to the rest of the bay area/freeways and restaurants. Overall, we walked away with good memories of a lovely stay and look forward to visiting dan's place again.
