I simply loved the place. I was concerned about staying in Oakland since I was always told that it was a bad part of the bay area but where she is located it was a wonderful neighborhood. I felt more safe than anytime I stayed in San Francisco city itself and I have stayed there 30 or more times in my life. I ended up having to walk to the 7 11 store a couple blocks away for Apple juice (since our son could only have clear liquids in the hours before his surgery and we had forgotten Pedialyte) it was late and my fiance had to stay with our son since he was sleeping... I was surprised that the neighborhood was still upstandingly clean of Rif raf. Deanna was a sweetheart leaving cakes for us hanging on the door when we arrived back from UCSF children's hospital. She had placed toys in a basket along with some age appropriate children's books when she found out our 1 year old would be staying with us. There is a child's gate on the porch so he could have walked and crawled out there if we were able to stay longer. There was also an outside gated children's play area we could have used as well. WiFi and a personal computer that was provided made the place even more attractive. My only wish would be that we could have stayed longer and for a vacation rather than just for my son's surgery. I would recommend her place to anyone. Thank you Deanna!
