Catherine’s room in Oakland is in a quiet, leafy neighborhood that could be a movie set, the vibe is so cozy and homelike. Right on the edge of Berkeley and close to dt Oakland, the location is fantastic. The room is a lovely walkdown which, once the door is closed, feels like a private, beautifully appointed little salon a million miles from anywhere. Place features a modernist shower and bathroom area, coffee, tea, a mini-fridge, wall-mounted tv on a miracle-swivel, and spot lighting that can be slid from minimalist to maximalist thanks to dimmers on every fixture. This is one of those places you return to at the end of a day, proclaiming “so nice to be home..!” before you realize where you are. Cozy and secure and spotless.
