The property is lovely, in a very easy walk to restaurants. Very clean and up to date. Street parking was a worry before we got there, but it was no problem at all.
Easy to find, parking ample on side street, convenient location for access to town. Stay was comfortable with very little noise from Broadway, surprisingly. Kitchen, bath, and bedroom were very clean and well-appointed. Couldn’t get the coffee maker to work, but don’t care for Keurig coffee anyway due to the plastic.

People have personal preferences to their coffee and coffee makers. We would have been happy to help with the operation had we known there was difficulty. Coffee maker working without issue. Glad that you enjoyed your visit and the property.
We loved this little quaint cottage so much! It’s close to everything, you can easily walk to so much. The property is very well appointed with literally all you need, it’s very clean and comfortable. Alameda is adorable too. Don’t miss that directly across the street there is a Spite house! We had no idea! If you don’t know what that is, look it up, very cool. Ole’s Waffles was great, and there is a pin ball museum here too! We were here for a week and cannot recommend this as a place to stay more highly.
Super clean, well-laid out space that’s only a short walk to Park for food and shops. The kitchen and bath stand out as especially nice and functional.
This is my second time staying here for a work trip, and it will always be my go-to if its available.Perfect location, clean and updated, and Margaret is very communicative and wants her guests to enjoy their stay.
This was our second stay at Margaret's charming place and it was just how we remembered it, Perfect! Great location, easy parking and fun location. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and charming getaway. We have family in Alameda and hope to stay there again.
Very nice and would highly recommend it. The house was exceptionally great in every aspect and the neighborhood was lovely with easily accessible.

Thank you for choosing my Bay Area vacation property. I’m glad you enjoyed your stay and walkability of shops and restaurants here in Alameda as well as nearby and easy access to San Francisco or the city as we locals call it. Please come back again soon.
We had a wonderful time in Alameda visiting our daughter and sightseeing in the Bay area. We had everything we needed and more. It was very comfortable and convenient to walk to restaurants in Alameda. The owners were very accommodating. Highly recommend!
This was our 4th stay at this home. It consistently fills our needs. It is close by to where we want to be and we are comfortable here. The beautiful gardens are an added bonus.
We have been to the Bay Area many times, but this is the first time we stayed in Alameda. The accommodations were perfect, as was the neighborhood. We had a very good stay at Margaret and Paul‘s. We recommended this property wholeheartedly.
This home was even better than advertised. Super comfortable. Location is close to coffee shops and restaurants. Very clean and comfortable. Would definitely rent again!
I can’t say enough great things about the property and the owners. It is so well kept, clean, and centrally located. It has everything you can think of for a comfortable stay. It’s easy to see why the calendar shows this property is often booked in advance. Will definitely book again when we visit Alameda again.
Thank you for hosting us while we visited family in Alameda. Your high standards to cleanliness and pristine condition of everything in the unit is very much appreciated. We will book again on our next visit for sure!
