Jennifer is a really fantastic host. We had a great time staying at her place and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.
There was clear and very quick communication prior to and during our stay. Check in procedure is very well explained. She made sure that we were comfortable and happy during our stay, even going out of her way to make sure of it.
It was a great base from which to explore the Bay Area. It’s a 10 minute walk to the nearest Bart station and then a fairly quick ride into San Francisco if needs be.
In terms of staying in Oakland - we didn’t feel unsafe during our stay here.
The apartment was clean and comfortable, with all the necessities you would need for a short stay. There are extra heaters if needed and plenty of extra bedding and linen.
