Neighborhood

Castro Valley is a small and peaceful family friendly suburb of San Francisco with great small town benefits but also easy access to the bigger cities. Within 15 minutes, in several different directions are the Japanese Gardens (a really nice place) as well as golf courses, lakes, parks and the Oakland Zoo.

Guest Access

Since we're a family (with two young children) we like to keep our backyard free for them to play, so it is not for share. However, Lake Chabot is only a mile away (walking distance) and a great place for a walk, hike, or even a bike ride. -Street parking -Free high speed Internet / WiFi Guests will enjoy complete privacy and exclusive access to the entire in-law suite. **Private Entrance:** Your own separate entrance allows you to come and go as you please. **Self Check-In Available upon request:** Convenient and easy self check-in process. **Restricted Areas:** Please note that our main backyard is reserved as a private play area for our three young children and is not available for guest use.

We had a wonderful stay at Anita and Nermin’s place. Nermin was extremely responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The unit was clean, comfortable, and very cozy, which made our trip even more enjoyable. We really loved the space and felt right at home. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely recommend this place to others.

Lovely little home! It was clean, organized, warm and so elegant! And the best part is that there’s a beautiful lake nearby. Will definitely reserve again if I ever decide to come back and visit San Francisco. Thank you, Anita, for such a wonderful stay.

Although the room was small, it was very private and had everything we needed. Anita and her husband were great hosts and we would definitely go back. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Anita H’s place was awesome. It’s in a great location with lots of nearby places to visit and activities, and it’s conveniently close to Lake wood and San Francisco while still feeling peaceful. The home was comfortable and well kept. Anita was a fantastic host—kind, responsive, and quick to address any questions or concerns. I would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I came to Castro Valley to visit our grandchildren. Anita’s warm and cozy suite fit right into the nature of our visit. Anita and her husband were friendly and responsive. They were also accommodating when we needed to check in a couple hours early. Though the unit is attached to their home we had complete privacy. The suite was spotless and comfortable. The neighborhood is family based and a pleasure to be in. That said, they are very close to Lake Chabot, a wonderful spot to visit. We look forward to returning to this airbnb!
