"Property manager was a dream to communicate with. The location was perfect for me, and the unit provided a detailed map of the area with suggested restaurants within walking distance. The unit was well appointed, very clean and adorable. No winery- not sure why the review asks about a winery. If you have a need for a place to stay near SFO/S.San Francisco, this is a great spot. Very quiet, be prepared for hilly parking."
