Review Submitted: 08/17/11
It is a big and beautiful house. It is very elegant and filled with details. The master bedroom is just amazing. It was very easy to get to San francisco every day; we never caught traffic in our way in or out to SF, so it was a great idea to stay at Castro Valley during our San Francisco trip. There are a lot of restaurants and stores near the house. It is the perfect location to stay during a San Francisco trip.
Owner response:This was a last minute booking. We only had a small window open during August and fit there needs perfectly. There where 10 traveling in a van around California. Our home is the perfect location to get to all major San Francisco Bay Area attractions in 30 to 45 minutes.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.
