702 was charming, clean, brightly sun-lit and impeccably decorated. It was a pleasure staying there for a week while apartment shopping in the surrounding neighborhood. My room was comfortable and the energy in the space is conducive to work, calm and retreat. Step onto the street for a neighborhood feel that is minutes from downtown. My favorite parts of Johanna's place were:
1) Quick walkability to Lake Merritt
2) The sleep sound machine that I could dial to my mood
2) The yoga mat in the living room where I started my days with REAL sun salutations
3) Open and private work spaces (took advantage of all of them)
4) A gorgeous gas range where I cooked when I wasn't trying local foods
5) Conversing with the host about this & that
The only things to remember are to take your dirty shoes off and to watch that bottom step if you're moving too fast. This place is a gem. Stay there.
