charming well appointed home in a very comfortable safe feeling neighborhood. comfortable furnishings and beds and all the comforts of home. very sweet back yard area with seating separate from pool area. pool is very nice although since its not heated we were not able to really use it since we weren't there during the peak heat of the day mornings and evenings were to cold to use the pool

Nice Accomodations

This is a nice home in a safe, comfortable neighborhood with a very amenable host. We found nothing lacking regarding amenities, and, in fact, there’s more than typically provided. The back patio and pool area have a special ambience in the evening with all the twinkle lights, which just enhanced our overall experience. Also, we had the best Italian Cappuccino at Eon the morning we left! Try it - you won’t be disappointed. We enjoyed our stay and hope to return. Thank you.

nice family place

We were grateful to have a safe and clean house where we could spend the holidays with nearby family.The house was clean, the hosts were super nice and quick to respond. The neighborhood was quaint and felt safe even at night. Our kids enjoyed the backyard and had some space to stretch out.One tip, if you like to cook, like we do, bring your own big pots and pans, sharp knives and a fold out dining table and chairs for family style meals. Oven worked great, the stove was quirky.They did have great appliances like toaster overs, air fryer and rice cooker - so that was nice!

About the host

Hosted by Steven and Mei

Host profile image
I am from bay area and we have 2 daughters. We love going outdoors, and spend time together as a family. We have made this house and loved it as we lived there before and enjoyed every bits of it. We would love the guests to feel the same and to love as well as caring the house as if it is theirs as well.

Why they chose this property

This is a great neighborhood in Hayward. A desirable neighborhood in Hayward. The neighbors are very nice and quiet. They are very welcoming as well. The location is very good since it's just minutes away from San Mateo bridge and it is pretty much in the middle of every where. So, if you are looking to spend time at San Francisco, East Bay or South Bay, this is the perfect place to be!

What makes this property unique

We love our house and I hope you all do too! We take a good care of the inside and have remodeled thoroughly for the kitchen. Please keep our home clean and in good condition :). The backyard is very relaxing and we have made it as a resort / villa. The pool we try our best to make it as good as possible for everyone to enjoy and we have someone to come in weekly to maintain it.
