Family Wedding Weekend!

Hi! This was a nice place, but I would not choose it again for a fun vacation getaway with family. It is a basement apartment, so there are no good outside views. It's dark, and the lighting isn't great. There was a patio there, but due to the intimacy of the location and posted rules, we did not feel comfortable hanging out there or inviting any of our relatives to stop by and visit. It was odd to be asked not to park in front of the property as all other parking was in front of the neighbors' homes. It is a shoeless apartment, but there is not a good setup for sitting and removing shoes comfortably on entry. I would only choose this location for work travel, not for a vacation getaway.

Great walking neighborhood

This large basement apartment is equidistant from Rockridge and Temescal districts, offering great options for dining out. The kitchen is well set up if you’re more inclined to eat in, and good groceries are walking distance away. Jeri was welcoming. Instructions for checking in and out clear and simple.

A perfect location for a relaxing vacation. The hosts were wonderful, too. The space was clean and had all the amenities needed for comfort. Taking leisurely walks to College Ave to shop and eat were added benefits to the location. Will definitely be back when we travel here again!

Terrific location with great patio

My husband and I stayed here with our adult daughter. Terrific communication from host! The apartment is clean and comfortable. We walked to Trader Joe’s for food to have on hand and loved drinking our coffee on the patio before starting our busy days in Berkeley. Easy street parking. We slept so well in this quiet neighborhood. We will definitely stay with this host again.

Perfect Stay!

Our family stayed in this basement apartment while visiting friends in the area. It is a lovely home in a quiet neighborhood. The apartment had everything we needed, and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed hanging out in the courtyard on sunny afternoons. This property has the perfect location. It is close to BART, Trader Joe's and restaurants. We walked and took transit everywhere -- we did not need a car. We felt totally safe walking around the neighborhood and on transit during our stay in Oakland. We would definitely stay here again!

Clean, comfortable, easy in and out

The host was easy to communicate with and everything was clean and comfortable for our short stay. Not much light in the apt (which is basement level), which is fine if you expect to be out during the days. We were dissappointed there was no hot tub which was listed in the amenities and we had planned around. we each had small space heaters in our rooms/LR, which made it a bit hard to regulate the temperature.
