Hip hideaway steps to DT w/garden patio & W/D

ErickaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Chase’s place was exactly as described. I really appreciated all the thoughtful touches, like labels for WiFi, extra toiletries and even a few office supplies. I was very happy & surprised to find two luggage racks. Chase even accommodated an extremely late check-in, due to my train being delayed four hours. There’s no question that I would stay here again. I wish I could’ve stayed longer!

Modern Living Steps From Downtown

SunnyRating, 5 stars3 days ago
5 stars! A Perfect Stay in Walnut Creek! Our family truly enjoyed every moment of our stay at Alexander’s place. The home was not only spotless and comfortable, but also thoughtfully stocked with every amenity you could need—from extra trash bags to toothbrushes, floss picks, and cotton swabs. Everything was arranged in such a convenient, intuitive way that it felt less like a typical guest room and more like a home someone genuinely lives in with care. We appreciated the ease of free parking right in front of the garage, and Alexander’s warm communication throughout. He lives downstairs, so he was always available and checked in from time to time to make sure everything was going smoothly and answered all questions that we had for local places. Taking out the trash was super easy, and having a washer and dryer available was a big plus for a longer stay. This place was not just clean and cozy,it was smartly set up for real comfort. We would absolutely love to stay here again!

Your Walnut Creek Luxury Oasis Awaits

EvanRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Great location and very comfortable space. The kitchen was nicely stocked with utensils to make cooking easy. There's a dedicated parking spot right in front of the unit, if you have a tall or long vehicle like a truck it might not fit in the spot and there are limited uncovered spaces to park. The AC is in the living room and doesn't get back to the bedroom very well which isn't a problem unless it's a really hot day. There was one day that was 90°F and the bedroom didn't cool off. The living room and couch are comfortable and a nice spot to unwind.

Cozy Luxe N Oakland Garden Hideaway with Hot Tub

MiloRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We absolutely loved everything about Eurydice's space. So elegant in its simplicity, and clearly prioritizing coziness and livability. She's thought of so many touches that made it all the more welcoming: extra throws and blankets, a fan and heater in the closet in case you need a temperature adjustment, a night light in the bathroom, super comfy seating and bed. All this set in a gorgeous garden that's very convenient to public transportation and very walkable to boot. On top of all that, Eurydice was a great host: very responsive, warm, and welcoming, even though I never ran into her while we were there. This place really felt like home away from home, and the most difficult part was getting myself to leave! :)

Grand 1868 Victorian, Family-Friendly w/ Hot Tub

DeviRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Shea’s place was beautiful and spacious for our family of 5. Check in was easy and Shea was very responsive to all my questions about the home and neighborhood. We took full advantage of the backyard with hot tub and ping pong when we needed a break from sightseeing. There was a fair amount of noise from neighbors and the street in the front of the house. All in all we enjoyed our stay.
