A peaceful, well-designed and equipped cottage in a lovely, convenient, and walkable neighborhood. Sunny was always available (she lives in front) but never intrusive. We were two people, with a car and occasional guests, and it was perfect for our needs.

We enjoyed everything about the cottage and Sunny and Sammy were great hosts and neighbors. We'd be happy to live there full time if we could.

About the host
Hosted by Sunny Yoon
I'm an inveterate traveler who has decided to settle down in Berkeley after a long stint in Brooklyn, New York. Before this, I've lived in Europe and Asia and have traveled through many many parts of the world, from backpacking through war torn Central American countries to fairly posh hotel living in Istanbul.
I love traveling vicariously with people who are visiting my corner of the world -- giving directions to lost tourists holding unwieldy maps, telling people where the best [fill in the blank food] is in such and such neighborhood and feeling like I know a small secret about the city that I'm sharing with you. Also, as you might have guessed from the previous sentence, I'm obsessed with food and can talk about where to eat and what to cook/bake endlessly.
I can speak with you fluently in French, Spanish and Korean and fake the rest of the Romance languages, so I'm happy to translate the strange idiosyncracies of Berkeley to you
I hope you discover the charms of Berkeley for yourselves. Happy travels!
Why they chose this property
Set back in a quiet garden, this 2 bedroom cottage is a hideaway from the bustle of the city. While located just a couple of blocks from a thriving restaurant and shopping district, the cottage enjoys a calm garden view.
The UC Berkeley campus is a short walk away for academic visitors, and there are several parks with playgrounds within a few blocks of the cottage.
