Melissa

Jabu was a wonderful host, she definitely made our (mine & my dog's) stay quite comfortable. She was nice enough to take us in last minute, out of pure compassion. Then, after my first night - she asked how I slept and I had told her I loved everything but the pillow wasn't exactly firm enough for me. Then, I mentioned that I would simply grab a new one in my travels, but I never even had time to because she picked one up 2 days later and left it outside my door! Biscuits Jackson is very... More »

Staying with Jabu has been the best experience that I could have hoped for. Jabu has been very helpful in every way possible. For my future stays in the Bay Area, I wouldn't go anywhere else for the following reasons: 1. The house is great and has everything you need 2. The host is a great, honest person. 3. Location. It's a 5 minute walk from Ashby station and Berkeley Bowl 4. Affordable Highly recommended!
Isaac

I have extended my stay here 3 times for the following reasons: 1. The house is in a great location close to the Ashby station 2. Despite her very busy schedule, Jabu keeps the house very clean. 3. Jabu is a great person in every way possible It was an excellent stay with the best host you could possibly ask for. Highly recommended!

I love this space. It is unique. However, it may not be for everyone. The attic stairs can be a bit difficult to navigate. I would recommend this to anyone who is traveling very lightly as lifting baggage into the attic calls for someone strong. The rest of the house is nicely kept, Jabu is wonderfully welcoming and sociable. Biscuits, the dog, is a real sweetheart. The location couldn't be better for anyone wishing to experience San Francisco and the East Bay!

I have been at Jabu's place for over a month now. To say that she is simply the perfect host would be an understatement. She is very generous, kind, and easygoing. I had plans to move into different areas around SF, but my stay here has been so perfect that I couldn't go elsewhere. I extended my stay three times, so I guess that tells you how happy I have been staying here. The house is very nice and there's everything you need. Jabu keeps it very clean and the rooms are large and nicely... More »

Jabu, Jeff and their dog Biscuits Jackson were perfect guests, friendly, clean and considerate... We would have them back anytime and hope they come again when they can stay a little longer and really get a chance to enjoy the place!

Jabu was a wonderful guest. Our communications were enjoyable and thorough. Her eye for detail clearly noticed the extra touches we have incorporated at our home which made us feel good. Jabu was so positive that even though she experienced inclement weather, she still felt that the off grid system at the Lotus Lake House provided a luxurious and relaxing experience for her. Jabu is clearly an open, adventurous and flexible guest. We were delighted to have her and Biscuits Jackson visit and... More »

Extremely considerate and easy to deal with. Come back soon!

Perfect guest! I have worked with Jabu before and like in the past it was a wonderful experience.
Agnes

This is the 2nd time Jabu has organized a stay for a group of coworkers . Like in the past, the house was cared for greatly and the group was low-maintenance, nice, respectful guests. I'm looking forward to working with her in the future.
Agnes

Jabu has arranged for a group of co-workers from out of town to stay in our house. Her communication skills are excellent and she made sure that the house was cared for properly. Very respectful and professional. Looking forward to having her back!

Jabu is an all around lovely person. She brings positive energy to every situation. She can be the voice of reason, while also being a friend to lean on. I would recommend Jabu as a host, or a guest. If you're a host, you'll be lucky to have her and her awesome dog, Biscuits!

I have known Jabu (and her adorable companion, Biscuits Jackson) for almost a year now. Talk about a dynamic duo! Both Jabu and "B" lead with their warmth and friendliness, creating a positive atmosphere wherever they go. I am fortunate to work with Jabu and find her to be sincere, thoughtful, and professional- with a fabulous sense of humor! Well-traveled, creative, and friendly, she is the perfect companion for any activity. From a hike in Berkeley to a shopping excursion for the perfect... More »

Jabu is Wonderful! She is friendly, considerate and respectful. Her dog, Biscuits is one of my best-friends. Jabu has impeccable taste in spaces and in people! Anyone in Airbnb-land would be lucky to have her as a Host or as a guest :)

I have known Jabu since she was a baby---she is a person of utmost integrity, caring and engaging. She is very worldly and well travelled, but also down to earth. She loves to have a good laugh and while serious about the world, does not take herself to seriously. She is bound to give a good insider tips on what is happening in the local scene.

What can I say about Jabu-- she's one of the most inspirational people I know! We've known each other for well over 15 years. Jabu has taught me a lot about my relationship to others, particularly, my relationship, as a man, to women. Knowing her has made me a better father, teacher and person. I have a great deal of respect for her intelligence, her integrity, and her courage. If you can't tell by now, she is a special person. You would be a fool not to want to host Jabu.

Jabu has a spirit unlike anyone else I've ever met. She is a constant joy and gets along with everyone. I consider myself so lucky to have a friend like her. She would treat any home like it was her own.
