Kates cottage is a charming and functional place, and particularly awesome given the nice price point in one of the best locations in town. I used to live in Oakland and this neighborhood is within walking distance to a ton of stuff, and central to most things. Kate was very accommodating and responsive, and lovely to chat with.
If there is one small thing to be aware of, for those affected by lighting, the main room lighting is overhead and somewhat blaring when you’re laying in bed trying to read. There is one desk type lamp on a nightstand, but not enough to light the room. I’m sure most wouldn’t even notice this, but i’m tuned into these kinds of things. Still, highly recommended!
