Jordie's garden apartment is the perfect place to stay in Oakland. The apartment itself is very thoughtfully decorated and comfortable to stay in - from the bathroom and kitchen to the great book selection, everything has been thought of. The location is super convenient - a couple blocks from the BART, and around the corner from a great bagel shop (which we enjoyed outside in the lovely garden area out back). Jordie was a great host - very responsive and made sure everything was taken care of. I would love to stay here again the next time I'm in Oakland - highly recommend.
