Mehdi's place is exactly as advertised, excellent location and all the amenities a guest would need for a short or long stay. He was incredibly responsive via text and the place was very clean. There were supplies to cook, for tea/coffee, extra towels, an ironing board and blow dryer. All of these small perks added up as I stayed for several days with a mix of work zoom calls and fun activities planned. The backyard was also a nice escape from the "city" - Medhi's place is in a great location very accessible to the highway and Lake Merritt. Overall, I highly recommend this place and -as a solo female traveler -I can attest I felt safe in this ground floor unit in the midst of the action. Oh an check-in/out was a breeze with a lockbox and clear directions. Only delta would be my cell service wasn't too strong so I'd use the wifi to Facetime audio folks. 5 stars!
