The place is very cozy, comfortable, and beautiful, and mainly located in the prime area. There are good stores nearby eg: Safeway, Trader Joe's, etc and good restaurants too. David is an amazing host and very effective communicator. He is very helpful. He provided us with bikes for roaming in the nearby areas, he was also very flexible in accommodating changes in the reservations, moreover on our last day he even dropped us to our destination. In addition, the kitchen is filled with snacks. It is quite reasonable and comfortable option to stay in Oakland.
