Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan E. 23 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great VRBO Our first VRBO experience was really fantastic! Everyone in our party commented on how thoughtfully every aspect of the VRBO was setup. It has everything you need in every room and has plenty of space for 6 people. Great neighborhood with lots of old Victorians and friendly locals. Wonderful walks for exercise or errands. Local shops, restaurants and groceries (Trader Joe’s!) are within 10 minute walking distance. There are cute parks in the heart of the residential areas and the beach is only a 15-20 minute walk away. Things to know that will help future renters and that will hopefully be added to the VRBO profile. - Three flights of steep external stairs to get to the unit. - There was only one designated parking space instead of the two spaces specified. - There is a low roofed part of the building that juts out over the driveway just a bit. It’s a tight squeeze and untenable if you have a large or tall vehicle. Our Audi SUV and Denali fit just fine, but it was close! Overall, we had a wonderful experience. So good in fact, I felt a bit conflicted writing the review, wanted to keep it all for ourselves. ##### Dan E. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris R. 18 Jun 2025 ##### Chris R.

Clean, charming and close to stores in South Shore and restaurants downtown. Check-in and checkout was extremely smooth, expect a message on the day of your arrival with information. I would gladly come back to this place with my family in the future! ##### Terés S.

We had the whole third floor of a Victorian house. Could have easily had six guests. Thank goodness for off-street parking too. The apartment had everything we needed and had very comfortable beds. It’s location made it the perfect base to ferry into San Fransisco or drive south to San Jose or Monterey. Plus we enjoyed just staying on the island. Lots of thing to do and places to eat. We would stay there again!! ##### Ray H.

It was quieter than I expected it to be, and it was easy for the kids to sleep in the bedroom and not be disturbed by the adults in the living room. The main thing to be aware of is that it is a climb up three flights of stairs, so if anyone in the group has mobility issues this would not be a good choice. The apartment was very clean. ##### Michelle T.

Apartment is very clean and in a good area. The owners are very pleasant people and very easy to communicate with. The only problem, I would not recommend it for older people as it is located on the 3rd floor and a little bit difficult to climb upstairs. Other than that I would definitely recommend it and would stay there again. ##### Valentina K.

The property is extremely clean,but could use some updating. ##### Donna A. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### DEBBIE M., Danielsville, GA 26 Jan 2019 #### Charming House & Neighborhood! Great place and great location! Be sure to check out the hinges on some of the doors. The only thing that might concern some is that there are fairly steep stairs up and down. We didn't mind because we needed to burn off some calories after enjoying great food from one of the many restaurants just a block or two away. This is a very walkable neighborhood, quite charming and close to shopping, the beach, and the ferry to San Francisco. It's also less than an hour by car to Muir Woods. We enjoyed our stay very much. The place is well decorated and comfortable. ##### DEBBIE M. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### katherine w., irmo 25 Jan 2019 #### Great place to stay! The house was great! Well-stocked with everything you may need. The beds are very comfortable. The location is awesome and in walking distance to many great restaurants. We just loved it and cannot wait to come back! ##### katherine w.
