This was an EXCELLENT stay. From the great communication with the host to the comfortable accommodations. To a very quiet location. Looking forward to staying there in the future.
This little place is well equipped, designed with flare, and extremely cozy! A great relaxing landing place for exploring the area. I was immediately soothed upon entry: mood lighting and a spa-like atmosphere were just what I needed. Little touches like coffee and snacks, along with the unique jetted shower, make for a really relaxing environment. Also, the hosts provided very thorough recommendations for restaurants, activities, etc. A great find in San Rafael!
Thank you for your glowing review, Janet! We are delighted to hear that you had a pleasant stay and appreciate your glowing recommendation. W We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Eugene and Natalie.
The hosts were great with communication and offering to accommodate late check out when our flight got delayed an entire day. The room is gorgeous and very thoughtfully decorated. The shower was amazing. So amazing we actually ordered the shower tower for our bathroom during our stay. Bed was super comfy and the sheets and bedding were soft. Love that there’s a keurig with strong coffee, creamer, sugar, and even some Almond Roca syrup. Also loved the snacks that were provided. Overall, a great stay. Loved the area. Felt safe and it was quiet. We would definitely stay again.
You can’t go wrong with this rental for a stay in the Bay Area. Quick access to the ferries and short drive to Muir Woods - lots of supply stores closeby. Loved the shower!! Will stay again thank you!
The property was very cozy and mid century modern themed with lava lamp and retro styled appliances. The bed was super comfortable with a TV located on the wall across dome the bed made for a perfect movie night.
Suite was amazing and so beautiful! When we arrived, soothing and welcoming music was playing on the televisions along with a beautiful waterfall screensaver. Beautiful and quiet area. Hosts were responsive to all questions that we had and were eager to assist. This was by far, the most memorable and beautiful VRBO that we have ever stayed at. When we come back to the San Francisco area, we will definitely stay here again. Thank you so much for such a pleasant stay.
Our stay at this property was wonderful. It was comfortable, extremely clean, the decor was so charming. The location was ideal: great for hiking, walking distance to the market and casual dining, and for us, a few blocks away from family we were visiting. We highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!
Great stay. Had everything I needed for an extended stay. Great hosts. Comfy bed, two TV's, updated appliances with washer dryer. I will keep this in mind next time I need to come to the area.
Eugene and Natalie’s place is lovely! The communication was perfect. The suite is just as the pictures describe. I enjoyed my stay and, if opportunity permits, I would stay again. I highly recommend!!
This modest getaway apartment was fantastic. Right around the corner from Scotty's Market and our relatives in San Anselmo. Loved everything about it!
