A little sanctuary

This VRBO has great potential but missed the mark for us in a few ways, which ultimately prevented us from being able to give more than 3 stars: 1. Ant infestation in the kitchen area which was spotted on day 1 without any food being present (ants were also later spotted in the bedrooms) 2. Only 1 hand towel and 1 wash cloth was provided for a 5 day stay for 4 people; 3. No washer or dryer in unit (a massive drawback for any longer term stay such as ours) Host was great and had no issues whatsoever with communication.

This is a great garden suite in the hills of Rockridge! The unit is spacious and comfortable, and well-appointed for the stay. The outdoor space is lovely, and as many other reviews indicate, the view is incredible. The only possible area of improvement that I can think of is the fact that we did see a few ants, but we were careful to seal up and not leave out any food, so it wasn't really an issue. Warren was a communicative and helpful host, so if you're in the area, this a great place to stay!

We had an excellent stay and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The location was beautiful and the rooms were clean and bright. We will definitely stay again in the future. Thank you for your hospitality!

Convenient location for our east bay excursions. Lovely outdoor garden space and glimpse views of SF and the Bay. Owner was very nice and easy to connect with.

Warren's property is just fantastic. The view is truly incredible, and the size/space of the unit is more than worth the cost. For our 18 month old son, there was plenty of space for him to run around, plenty of things for him to see in the garden, that even when it rained we didn't feel cramped. The main bedroom even has two small laundry/linen walk-in closets, one of which we used for my son's travel crib. Couldn't have asked for a better stay. Looking forward to our next visit!

5 star review for 5 star place. A friend and I rented "Million Dollar View" for a long weekend to attend a wedding. The house was exactly what we had hoped for! Ideal location (all wedding activities occurred within a 5 mile radius), very clean and spacious quarters (every room was large!), stunning views (accurately called million dollar view), and a luxurious patio to enjoy the perfect weather. We had excellent and timely communications with Warren. Thank you for helping make the wedding weekend such a success!

Had a lovely time here, especially enjoyed the morning and sunset views. Perfectly clean and comfortable

Stayed for a week. The views are exactly as promised & the garden lovely - made what was a spacious 2 bedroom suite feel even larger. The host went out of his way to touch base, answer requests and offered suggestions about things to see and do. Would definitely choose to stay there again.

amazing views and perfect location! close to everything you need. will definitely stay again.

Great view of San Francisco, very beautiful and quiet neighborhood, lots of street parking available.

This was the perfect property for my family of 3. We couldn’t have been happier. It was very clean and had stunning views and a beautiful patio. Everything was even better than pictured! The neighborhood was also nice and walkable. Warren was an amazing host! Highly recommend.

We were extremely comfortable here. Warren was very accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay here. Very peaceful and quiet.

We had an excellent stay in this wonderful "garden suite". The pictures and description are right on, and as others have said, Warren is an outstanding host. The 2 bedrooms were perfect for our family of 4, and the location can't be beat. Beautiful neighborhood, spectacular views, and close to everything (we went to SF, Oakland, Berkeley, Orinda, Walnut Creek - all easy). The only minor things to note were a slight smell of stale cigarette smoke (opening windows solved the problem most days), and it would have been ideal to have a washer/dryer and a dishwasher in the unit, but we knew about the appliances going in, so no surprises there. Overall, we would definitely stay here again.

I met my daughter and her fiancé here for a long weekend. The view was amazing - you can see the San Francisco skyline and multiple bridges. It was the perfect size for the 3 of us and the garden was a nice surprise. The stairs are a bit of a hike with luggage but I figured I burned id the calories from the great meals we had in the area. It was a really pretty and safe neighborhood and easy to park. Would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay. Beds were comfortable.

You will love the view of SF and GG Bridge and the lovely gardens of this beautiful home. The location is perfect in a quiet neighborhood but a quick ride to all the shops, restaurants, parks and anything else you’d want. Great place!!

In Oakland to see family. This was the perfect place to sleep & relax in between attending family get togethers. Beautiful view and outdoor area, very clean property with all amenities. Host answered questions promptly. Would stay again.
