Overall my stay was pretty good! Great little home and accommodations, not a great neighborhood. The reason I would give this place a three star instead of a five star is because my husband and I had to order an Uber or Lyft to get from Angela’s place to he nearest public transportation because it was too dangerous to walk the 15 minute walk to her home. We researched it a little bit and this is one of the most dangerous zip codes in Oakland, with the street called “international” something being one of the most dangerous streets in oakland. This has nothing to do with Angela or is anything she can change about her home, I was just sad that I had to spend about $5 per trip to/from her home, especially since it was only a 3 minute drive/15 minute walk. BUT, what was GREAT was we were in a gated community, I always felt safe when we were in the gated community :) Angela was great, the apartment room we stayed in was tidy and clean, we slept like babies on the bed even though it was a bit firm, and we didn’t hear hardly anything from our neighbors even though we were separated by a thin wall. If you are the type of people who like your privacy I would recommend a different place because you do have to share the bath, living room, and kitchen with Angela and the other guests. That wasn’t a problem for me so it didn’t affect my stay. So, again, Angela is great and very helpful and her home is perfect, I just didn’t like the neighborhood.
