Irina's place is as beautiful and roomy as the photos show. It works very well for a longer stay when you want to feel at home and have time to appreciate a separate bedroom and fully functioning upscale kitchen and bath. There is plenty of storage in bath and bedroom for clothes and personal items. The duplex is super clean and the kitchen well equipped for cooking. I also like the modern updates and conveniences in this 1920's Craftsman style home where the classic bones of the house have been preserved. Check in and out are very easy and the location is a 10 minute walk or 2 minute drive to one of the nicest Fresh Food markets and shopping streets in Oakland and to BART for easy access to Berkeley, Oakland and SF. Good street parking nearby.
