Whenever I visit Oakland, I continue to choose Lara and Ike's air bnb as my first choice in lodging. Their space is in a quiet, safe neighborhood, within a short walking distance to quaint Montclair Village which has unique shops, grocery stores, coffee shops, restaurants, etc. It is a 10-15 minute drive to the BART station in Rockridge which gives you access to all the great sites to see in Oakland and San Francisco and is also within waking distance to local bus transportation. The air bnb is very comfortable with all the perfect touches to make you feel right at home. Lara And Ike have excellent communication and make you feel welcomed. This place is quite a gem!
