Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tim S. Feb 18, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Property hosts are very engaging and helpful. The location is great to travel into San Fransisco and surrounding area. The home is VERY spacious and allows for plenty of room to settle in. At the end of a day surrounded by people and noise - we found the home a really nice place to come "home" to as it is quiet :) The kitchen is really nice as well! ##### Tim S.
