I went to Oakland to visit family. The location was great, with a Safeway store within easy walking distance to get any essentials. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. The cottage had a kitchenette, and was stocked with a few dishes and paper towels, which was very convenient. The hot tub was in great working order, clean and maintained. The garden was a communal area, clean, and had seating under a shed roof. I’ll certainly stay there again on my next visit to the Bay Area.
