The space
This is a beautiful Victorian house built in 1908, with delightful vintage details throughout, and recently luxurious upgrades from top to bottom. It is decorated with French Country theme. The neighborhood is quiet, safe and welcoming. House is equipped with high speed internet (free wifi), flat screen TV, and wash/dryer.
Guest access
Guests will have access to the entire house and the garden.
Interaction with guests
I am a very easy going person. Every guest will be respected and be cared for during their stay. Absolutely no problem if you break a dish, a glass, or accidentally scratch a table or spill something on the carpet. Things are meant to be used and guests should live freely during their visit.
I live in Santa Clara, 45mins south of Alameda. Not onsite most days, but always available by phone or text, and will give guests immediate attention. My kind neighbors Dean and Stacy offered to help in emergency situations. My grown up son, Sean (25), lives half miles away from the property is able to help as well.
Other things to note
Party is not allowed and quiet time is 9:30pm.
Host was very quick to respond to messages. Very nice walkable neighborhood. We had a minivan so had to park on the street but there was always space available on the same block. Beds were very comfortable. House was clean. Having a back porch was a plus for the young adults in the group to escape from the old fogeys. Having a couple of desks in the place was very useful. Pictures might not be 100% up to date - I believe room four now has two twin beds rather than a twin plus a full futon (Better imo). There is also a spare twin in one of the closets. We made the right choice with this place.
The house is adorable. The pictures don’t do it justice. Plenty of room, comfortable beds, lots of space for multigenerational family. We love Alameda. The house was very well cleaned. Lots of towels and blankets. Heat worked well to keep us comfortable during the cool nights. Loved walking around the neighborhood. The homes are gorgeous in the area. We were able to make our Thanksgiving dinner in the kitchen (although some items were purchased pre-cooked). We played cards around the table in the evenings. Everyone was comfortable. (Please check the legs on the kitchen table chairs, a couple may not last much longer). Note: the wifi works better towards the back of the house so the tv in the front room wasn’t able to connect. The kitchen could use a regular toaster.
We enjoyed the comfortable, beautifully appointed and gracious home. It was perfect for our needs!
Great location, clean and cozy place We really love the place Thank you
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely Victorian with many charming touches. Very clean, quiet, and well maintained. Perfect as a home base for sightseeing between SF, Napa, and surrounding areas.
This house is exactly as listed in the ad. It is beautiful and in a great location. We were able to walk to the water and to some local parks. Everything was clean and Diane was easy to communicate with. She even brought in a pack n play and high chair for my daughter. I will definitely be staying again.
Exactly as listed. Quiet neighborhood, easy to find street parking, close to restaurants and the ferry to San Francisco. Would stay here again!
Property details were very accurate.
All 5 of us enjoyed staying here. The house was great, location good and overall experience was very nice.
Parking can be challenging on the street but we always found something nearby. Easy walk to restaurants and bay. Lovely neighborhood to walk and look at houses.
This was the sweetest home. Comfortable beds, clean white bed linens, beautiful kitchen. I called the owner the morning of check out and she answered immediately. I would absolutely stay here again!
This house was great for our group of 9. The house is decorated with many cute accents that makes it feel very homey. The kitchen is a nice size and could accommodate our group. The neighborhood is quiet. Parking on the street was easy. The front porch and backyard have nice outside seating after a busy day in the city.
This house is charming and cozy, with outdoor seating and enough space for the entire family. The decor is French Victorian and very quaint
Great place to stay, very nice house :-)
Easy to check in, super good location: safe, quiet and on street parking. Kitchen well equipped, very comfy beds, spacious and lovely back yard. Host replies quickly to all questions. Alameda is a beautiful place to stay, great alternative to San Fran if you want a quieter and safer spot.
This is probably the best vacation rental I've used. My grandkids loved it! The beds are very comfortable, the bath towels are good quality and the attention to details were great. The neighborhood is adorable and the neighbors were friendly. The ferry terminal into San Francisco is close by and it was so convenient! I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!
