"The cottage did not seem newly remodeled; scuffs on walls, the bath linens and some of the furniture somewhat worn, but I give it 5 stars because it felt comfortable, clean enough, safe, quiet, and close enough to BART (about 12 minutes walk for me) and cafes so I didnt need a car, that was very convenient! Also, Chris was responsive and helpful."
