Crampted

Double bed up against the wall made it difficult to get out of bed for the one on the inside. I'm 70 and in good shape but still found it a chore to get up to go the the bathroom during the night. The room is very small. I'll stay in a motel next time.

Cozy, Tidy Private guesthouse in pretty Castro Valley with Lovely Hosts.

Conveniently located on a serene tree-lined street with Lake Chabot around one corner & Castro Valley Village shopping center around the other, this very tidy guest house suited us(2 adults)-perfectly. Though “small” as stated in the description-we found it comfortably cozy and accommodated a huge, extremely comfy bed, a large flat-screen tv w/premium, a dining table&chairs, a kitchenette (microwave,mini refrigerator,2 burner electric stove top,cooking pots,utensils,coffee maker,spices)and a clean bathroom w/ towels aplenty. There is a large lemon tree right outside supplying many fragrant lemons. Our hosts were so welcoming & assuring -no doubt had we needed anything we need only to ask and at the same time completely respected privacy. The only wish we had is that “Buddy”-the friendliest little tail wagger-would had visited more often-what a pure joy! Thank You for Everything Nermin&Anita we thoroughly enjoyed our visit! Also-plenty of parking right out front.
