Had a fantastic stay whilst visiting friends for the weekend in Willow Glen. Cute little house with separate entrance and all the basics needed. Quiet. Convenient and walkable to Lincoln Ave for dinner, coffee, yoga, etc.

    “The private entrance and solitude. The room was clean and a good size for a studio with all the amenities. The kind hosts left a little surprise of snacks and a couple of beers in the fridge! The sleeping arrangements for our family were perfect...”
