Andrews place is pure magick. Set in the beautiful Oakland Hills, perched like a birds nest in the morning fog, this cool and breezy little house is now my go to in the Bay Area. The neighborhood is hilly and narrow are the roads, so think low gear and be clever with the parking. The 70 steps go by quickly, and with a little planning and a cooler you will never miss a meal.
The room is small-ish (compared to what?) but full of light and very very clean. And the shower is amazing! Outside your windows are lemon trees, redwoods and a pair of what I believe are Saw Whet Owls that sing to each other in the East Bay night. What I am saying that this place has everything you need. Bed, sink, and clean sheets. The location is great, being that with a few simple turns, and a straight downhill glide you end up in the parking lot of Whole Foods Berkeley. Which is awesome.
Andrew and his family are the sweetest folks, kind and happy to meet you. You feel very safe and welcome with them.
This is a place I will return to again and again.
