The house is in a great location. Central to both San Francisco and Oakland. Adults and teenagers enjoyed the spacious swimming pool. We will absolutely stay at the listing in the future.

We provide 100% cotton towels and they are all have been cleaned properly every time. Thanks for staying with us. Pool towels are not provided and it is not listed as one of our amenities. Thank you for staying with us.
charming well appointed home in a very comfortable safe feeling neighborhood. comfortable furnishings and beds and all the comforts of home. very sweet back yard area with seating separate from pool area. pool is very nice although since its not heated we were not able to really use it since we weren't there during the peak heat of the day mornings and evenings were to cold to use the pool

Thank you for staying with us. Hope to see you and family again soon!
This is a nice home in a safe, comfortable neighborhood with a very amenable host. We found nothing lacking regarding amenities, and, in fact, there’s more than typically provided. The back patio and pool area have a special ambience in the evening with all the twinkle lights, which just enhanced our overall experience. Also, we had the best Italian Cappuccino at Eon the morning we left! Try it - you won’t be disappointed. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return. Thank you.

Thank you Nancy for the very kind words. We really happy you were able to enjoy your stay. Please come back and stay with us anytime. Thank you!
We were grateful to have a safe and clean house where we could spend the holidays with nearby family.The house was clean, the hosts were super nice and quick to respond. The neighborhood was quaint and felt safe even at night. Our kids enjoyed the backyard and had some space to stretch out.One tip, if you like to cook, like we do, bring your own big pots and pans, sharp knives and a fold out dining table and chairs for family style meals. Oven worked great, the stove was quirky.They did have great appliances like toaster overs, air fryer and rice cooker - so that was nice!

A clean, well maintained home with all necessities. If you're a big coffee drinker like us, you might want to bring extra pods - we ran out pretty quickly. The motion sensor lights were tricky for us. I'm an early riser, and I kept accidentally turning on lights. I ended up gently covering the sensors to prevent this. We had no issues, and the property owner was very responsive with any questions we had. I wish the weather was warmer so we could have enjoyed the pool. Comfy place for me and my family. Thank you!

Decent for price. Just didn’t like the 1,000 direction notes throughout. Take it easy on people we’re not going to read a novel every time we want to use the bathroom
