Carlos was an amazing host. quick responses and communication was excellent. We met with him for check in and a quick explanation of the apartment and he was wonderful.
Important note, Oakland is not a very sympathetic place. A few meters from the apartment there are a lot of homeless tents and a lot of homeless people in the neighborhood in general. I wouldn't recommend walking around alone in the neighborhood at night, but if you have a car, no problem because San Francisco is a 15-20 minute drive from the place.
