I really enjoyed this place. It was clean, open, and very well maintained. I will absolutely check availability here again on my next visit.One important note for future guests: try to arrive before dark. The entrance gate can be difficult to spot at night, and backing into it is challenging if you are unfamiliar with the setup.The main drawback is the gate itself, which can take some time to figure out. That said, once you understand the process, it becomes much easier to manage.I do have a few suggestions for improvement:Consider adding a powered gate with a temporary access code option that can be operated from a phone for easier entry.orTrim the bottom of the left gate to improve clearance.Add a pin holder on the right gate to prevent dragging when opening and closing.Adjust the pin alignment or adjust the pin-holes location in the driveway to ease closing and securing.Overall, a great stay with just a few minor usability improvements that could make a big difference.

Very pleasant stay overall. We had stayed there last year as well and liked it. The property is very conveniently located right off the freeway, which also leads to some occasional freeway noise. Overall we like this property and would use it again in the future.

Spacious and well presented accommodation

We had a great stay it was a perfect location between San Francisco and Sonoma for our stay in the area. Walnut Creek was also very close by with great restaurants and shops. The guest house was very spacious for our family of 4 and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area.

Super clean, excellent Wi-Fi, and everything we needed for our party of four. We look forwarded to staying here again the next time we are visiting family in the area. Hosts Sayar and Sina were very helpful and responsive, even offering to bring down an extra desk and chair from their house next door so our daughter could work from the house.

Great stay

We had a nice stay in this accomodation. It was bigger then what we expected in the pictures, we had a lot of room for the kids to go around. There is two bathroom and the beds were confortables. The location is near the highway to go to San Francisco and there is a lot of choices in Walnut Creek for restaurants just 2-3 minutes away in car. There is a nice cycle path just beside to go cycling or walking.

Spacious and Comfortable

This accommodation is a separate guest house on the owners' lot. It is spacious and comfortable and is well equiped with all a small family needs for a great stay. The location is great with restaurants, grocery stores, and retail of all sorts in abundance nearby. Access to expressways and local bus to BART station couldn't be more convenient. We enjoyed our stay here and expect to rent again for future visits to the area.

Great location minutes from San Fran and Berkeley

Great house and all you need for 3 to 4 adults. Great location very close to Walnut Creek and all of the shopping and restaurants. It's a guest house but you do not feel uncomfortable or like you are intruding on the owners. It's also nice to have the owners so close if you need anything at the house. Overall very satisfied and would rent again.

Alamo house is a great place!

We had a comfortable stay at Alamo House hosted by Sayar and Sina. The smart tv was not working on our arrival and Sayar got the tv changed out quickly. The property was clean and well stocked with kitchen items. The only negative of the property is the gate that must be manually opened and closed to drive in the driveway. We would stay again as the gate was only a once or twice a day issue!

Another great stay at Alamo guesthouse

This was our second stay here and we are returning next year. Sayar and Sina are the nicest people — very friendly, helpful, and responsive hosts! With any question or concern we had, we knew we could count on them for a quick response. The guest house is next to their home but feels completely independent and private. Parking in the driveway behind a gate is a bonus. The two-level house is spacious, attractive, and very clean. The nearby Iron Horse Trail is ideal for walking, running, and biking. Highly recommend!!

Wonderful Stay at Alamo Guest House

This beautiful guest house was only about two years old, well-appointed and comfortable. It was very clean and generously stocked. We appreciated the convenience of the private driveway for parking, two full bathrooms, two bedrooms, and the full-size washer & dryer in a separate area off the kitchen. The nearby walking/biking trail was a bonus. Although we enjoyed total privacy at the guest house, the owners were right next door if we needed them. What delightful hosts! They were so friendly and welcoming, and responded quickly if we ever had a question. It was truly a pleasure getting to know them a bit. We have booked another stay here and are already looking forward to it!
