Light-filled studio apartment with a full kitchen, bright natural light throughout the day, convenient desk and computer monitor to hook your laptop into (a plus for working on the go), quiet street at night. The walls are a little thin, so bring earplugs for night-time if you wake up easily, but altogether a pleasant place to stay for a night or a few days. You definitely need a car as it’s high in the Oakland hills, but if you have a car and like to eat at home & get a little work done from “home” then it’s a nice retreat from more urban areas of the city.
