This apartment is upstairs in a pretty old house, in a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood. The house sits next to a freeway, but miraculously you can't hear or see a thing. There is plenty of street parking, and it is close to Telegraph Avenue and the Rapid bus up to Berkeley. Jade recommended the Commonwealth Pub, a block away, and it was very good. The flat itself is light, airy, comfortable, and better equipped than any of my previous AirBNB rentals, with everything in the kitchen and pantry that you could possibly want. It feels as if you are being lent someone's house, rather than renting a sterile space. I loved random things like the poster of a young Joan Baez, or the fact that all the soaps and dishwashing liquids are fair trade and eco-friendly. We never met the chickens, though. Perhaps we will next time; we have already made our booking for Thanksgiving.
