Both Kevin and Mary are amiable hosts and very concerned with the comfort of their guests. The room is quiet, comfortable, and easily located near several bus routes. making it a boon for people who are stopping into Oakland for a day or two. While the commute to San Francisco is easily possible via a nearby BART station, the space is more suited for people who happen to be in the Oakland area for short-term business like I was. I was extremely happy and would not hesitate to return for another quick stay. Thanks guys!
