This place has it all: stylishly modern decor, a whole bathroom and bedroom to yourself, access to any amenities you may need, a central location to the best parts of Oakland, a short walk to public transportation/supermarkets/restaurants. Oh and be warned, there are 3 adorably cute dogs as well. Most importantly though, the host Carlos makes the experience special. Extremely kind, accommodating, and sociable, chatting with him about the day or about what to do in the area is enjoyable, not a chore. I was only here for 2 months, but he made it feel like home. If you're considering this place, I absolutely would recommend.
