WE had a great stay at Laura's studio. It is in an ideal location on a quiet residential Oakland street but with restaurants and grocery shopping nearby, and good street parking. Perfectly situated for everywhere we needed to be during a packed long weekend in the Bay Area. The studio is thoughtfully designed and well kept, with a super comfortable Muphy bed, fully equipped kitchenette, good shower, etc. I wish I had a chance to use the hot tub! Laura was an excellent host. Highly recommend!!
