Do not stay here

First I get a message saying hope you’re not looking for anything Luxurious. That should have been my first clue. When we pulled up, there was a for sale sign up. Really?? Then we were told we could only stay in the front “bedroom” ( which wasn’t a bedroom). I’m, we paid for the whole place why are we restricted? Floors were uneven ( I tripped while the host was showing us the place). The window in the front “bedroom “ was boarded up. The tv didn’t work and it was in a closet that had exposed insulation. The place smelled very very musty. Floors were nasty wouldn’t even go barefoot…ewww. We ended up spending extra to stay at the Hilton and going out to eat. We have NEVER had this kind of experience with VRBO. You would think they vetted their host better.

My partner is working in California so I flew into San Francisco for Valentines weekend to explore the city with him. We wanted a quiet and nice place where we could easily make day trips to the city and surrounding areas. This place was perfect for that. Quiet area and beautifully decorated with a lot of art everywhere. It was fun to see the different pieces around the place. The bed area has these really cool skylights above which bring in a lot of natural sunlight, and at night you can see the stars. The host was extremely kind and helpful during check in and told us everything we need to know and then after that just let us enjoy our stay with privacy which was important to us. The place itself is a loft style apartment with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. It kind of has the feeling of staying in a cabin in the mountains because of the beautful landscape surrounding the home. Lots of trees and plants surrounding making you feel like you're staying out in nature. The area is really pretty. Very close to the redwood forest which we drove over to visit one of the days. I believe it was just a 10 minute drive. Around 45 minute drive to san Francisco during the day We would definitely book this place again! Thank you so much. Everything was 10/10 for us
