Belinda's place is just as pictured and described. The beds were very comfortable and the common area is spacious. We were two adults each with a baby in tow and found ourselves in a great location walking distance to Lake Merritt and our pick of great shops, cafes, and eateries. Belinda was very friendly and stayed in touch with us throughout our stay and beyond. This is clearly someone's home and not an exclusive Airbnb so the apartment feels lived in, with lots of art and personal effects. And because it's an old apartment building, you can hear floors creak, neighbors slam doors, street noise, etc., but we didn't find any of it too bothersome. Note to allergy sufferers: while there are not cats there during your stay, cats do live their part-time so go prepared for that. All in all, a good stay!
