Pamela and Richard's home was exactly as described and even more impressive in person. The neighborhood is very walkable and easy to get to many neighborhoods via buses that run nearby.
They were very welcoming to me and my boyfriend and had great recommendations for places to visit in Oakland.
The room is sizable with great windows that flood in lights in the morning.
Even though Pamela is a very busy lady she made time to leave us breakfast and coffee every morning before she headed out and having coffee and reading the assortment of newspapers on their big dining table while the sun shone in the room was a real treat.
Definitely recommend staying here. What a beautiful home!
