Julia and Adriana are amazing hosts! If you are visiting Oakland/SF and want to be close to OAK, Oracle Arena/Coliseum--this is where you want to be! I came to Oakland to attend a concert and was blown away by the studio. It is a quick drive from the airport and even shorter drive to Oracle!
You can tell that a lot of time, effort and care was put into the studio. It was clean, cozy, and offered everything you might need! No detail, no matter how small, was overlooked!
The bathroom featured a great shower with all the amenities (body wash, shampoo, conditioner) and good water pressure--because yes, we all know that matters! :) A double sink with counter space came in super handy as I was staying with a friend. It is well-decorated, well-lit and felt like home. Everything was brand new!
Some of the best details are not currently featured in the photos, so I'd like to call them out: next to the fridge was a cute baker's rack with everything you could possibly need--mugs, cups, wine glasses, plates, bowls, silverware--you name it. They also offered a variety of tea and starbucks ground coffee--as well as sugar, creamer etc. A coffee maker and electric kettle rounded the entire thing out! In the fridge, a filtered water pitcher waits for you, already filled.
A table large enough for four now sits in front of the window where the desk used to be (see pictures for reference). The desk has been moved closer to the door, which makes it a convenient spot to place your keys or bags.
The bed was big and soft and we honestly fell in love with the comforter.
Parking is available on and off the street, and the property is gated!
Communication with Julia and Adriana was great--they were quick to respond and you could tell they were really invested in your comfort--so much hospitality!
Overall, an AMAZING experience. I'm looking forward to coming back--now that I've found this gem, I can't wait for the next concert at Oracle!
