Michael and Numo are wonderful, friendly hosts and the rental is likely the most comfortable and professional listing I have stayed in out of many I have been to recently. The space is a private apartment space under the home with its own entrance. It was far larger in person than it appeared in the photos and had a spacious living room and well stocked kitchen and bathroom. It was comfortable, sound-proofed effectively and a very short walk from the bus stops along Macarthur in the Dimond district.
Just a few things to be aware of, the listing is tucked up on a small hill with stairs and might be challenging for disabled individuals to climb up to. There is no laundry in the unit so you would have to drive laundry to nearby laundromats (though Michael and Numo graciously wash and fold towels and sheets for you once a week).
All in all, their home is a bit of a dream apartment to spend time in for any time you'd need to spend in Oakland and Michael and Numo are incredibly welcoming, responsive and helpful.
