The hosts were so very helpful and welcoming! I love homes that have character and this is definitely one of them. It was a great value to stay so close to downtown Oakland. The room has some views of the cityscape, was spacious and clean, and the bed was extremely comfortable. My only complaint was the litter box smell. As someone who has lived in homes with multiple cats before, I understand there will be an odor. But it smelled like they just needed to be cleaned out a bit more often. No smells in the actual room or bathroom though, and everything else was lovely. Great value overall!!
