Definitely a one of a kind for my first time booking an Air BnB! If you're expecting perfection, this place isn't for you. It's perfectly imperfect! Think recording studio, think bands partying -- things get a little thrashed over time, so the wear & tear shows. I say this affectionately, because for me, it just adds character to this gem. Yes, parking is a bit of a challenge, but it's the Oakland Hills. Being secluded and only hearing birds, sure beats sideshows and gunshots down in the flats of the Biggity, Biggity O. After a great night dancing my heart out at a sold out show in Berkeley, my knees felt every. single. stair. leading to and from the unit LOL. BUT still worth it!! On top of it all, the studio sparked lots of ideas and creativity for my bf who's a musician -- which was the icing on the cake! We hope to be back again soon.
