This little studio is comfortable and clean and Leslie is a great host. It's on a really lovely block in a great neighborhood in North Oakland and a great deal for the money. Wonderful family-owned places to eat nearby, including a tamales shop and delicious Pakistani food. The studio is in the back of a house undergoing extensive renovations, so guests should expect construction activity and the presence of workers throughout the day. I did not find this disruptive, but if you want something extremely quiet and private, this is not the place for you.
