Roses place is as expected except for the not clearly described fact that it is on a second floor with very steep 17 steps to climb. Being with my 84 year old mother made it a little challenging. It is stated under their Health and safety header but if you are someone that does not read everything you would not know. Other than that as many others mentioned the train is in fact literally right next to the duplex but it is not extremely loud and we were able to sleep. The only caveat would be in the summer as there is no A/C and it can get hot and you would not be able to open the windows due to the noise from the street. If you are a sound sleeper you would be fine!
The duplex is located in an area of Oakland that is not too nice to walk around in and not much to do, but since we were only there at night it was fine and we felt safe when we returned at night.
The apartment itself was well equipped and comfortable and the manager responded right away when we sent him a message when we arrived. We selected it because we were visiting family and it was close to them and it was clearly described that way although it would be nice to see a picture of the exterior to know what it looks like before you select it.
