"Up in the Hayward Hills, with everything we needed for our 4 nights in town. Convenient for downtown Haward or the greater SF East Bay region, with easy highway access. The well-stocked kitchen was a delight, and the in-unit laundry a terrific perk. My mom, sister, and I very much appreciated the designated off-street parking space! Beds were comfortable, although softer than any of us are used to. We all agreed we would be happy to stay here again. space!appreciated the the"
