My stay at this home was overall a pleasant experience. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and offers a very relaxing atmosphere. One of the highlights was the soothing sound of water flowing through the nearby rain drain creek, along with the frogs in the evening, it created a calm and enjoyable environment. The home itself is spacious and comfortable, making it easy to unwind. There were, however, a few areas that could be improved, especially considering the price. Cleanliness could be better, as there were several spider webs throughout the home. While not overwhelming, it did take away from the overall presentation. The grill listed as an amenity was unfortunately not in usable condition, as it appeared old and unclean. The hot tub was enjoyable but also seemed older and somewhat outdated for the price point. Additionally, the home lacked some basic essentials. There were no rags or cloths provided for personal use, dishes, or cleaning, and the one dish sponge available was worn and unsanitary, requiring me to purchase my own supplies. The cookware was also limited and showed signs of age. Overall, the home has great potential and provides a peaceful setting. With improved cleanliness, updated amenities, and better stocking of essentials, it could offer an even better experience for future guests.

Wonderful private space. Loved the hot tub and outdoor area. Comfortable living room and bedrooms. Very easy to communicate with the host. They were really great. Enjoyed our time!

We enjoyed a long stay here while our own home was undergoing water damage restoration, and it was comfortable and quiet. We especially enjoyed the pool on hot summer days, and the location is fantastic. If you're willing to walk 20-30 minutes, you can access much of what Castro Valley has to offer, from boba and barbecue to the movies and more. A special shout out to Alex for being a communicative and helpful host!
