We visited Oakland for a film festival recently. Mod Studio was recommended by a friend who knows hosts Leah and Gyorgy. It’s close to the festival theater and our hosts also attended. They turned out to be as delightful and thoughtful as other reviewers have observed.
Overall, a pleasant experience greatly enhanced by Leah and Gyorgy’s presence as well as their lovely garden. We really felt at home. Hope we’ll be able to stay there again. Mod Studio is so much better than a hotel. Equator Coffee’s excellent brew is only one block away, across from Whole Foods.
