Comfortable and quiet
We had a great stay at this home. Upper level of the house is comfortable and quiet. Plenty of space. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking. Wi-Fi is strong. No issues with on-street parking. Walkable to grocery stores, coffee shops, restaurants, pharmacies and hardware. Susie is a helpful and friendly host. We’ve stayed her before while visiting family in the neighborhood and look forward to future visits.

Convenient location - easy access to Berkeley and BART
A group of us playing with the San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers came in from the Northwest. This location was close to other band members and just a few blocks to restaurants, coffee and Trader Jo's. Easy access to BART for our San Fran concert.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Susie’s place. She was extremely responsive to any of our questions or requests and was very communicative regarding issues around the extreme weather which caused power outage etc. Our son is disabled and she was very accommodating with access to the apartment.
