Staying at Jane and Ed was an excellent and pleasant experience.
The room is wide and cozy with a second living room, which can be used as small kitchen and office. The bathroom is also excellent. The house and neighborhood are very green, with lots of plants, beautiful and quiet. Ed and Jane are very nice and thoughtful people to answer any questions. I really enjoyed staying there.
As for going to San Francisco from Oakland, you could easily get a bus+BART or taxi+BART. Both options are practical and take less than an hour. For me who enjoy staying at a nice and peaceful place, it was an excellent choice!
