I’m a medical student and I had a short term assignment at Highland Hospital and Tyler’s place was PERFECT!!
Location:
I didn’t bring my car with me and I got around the neighborhood just fine with my bike and bus. I took the 62 bus to highland (4 min walk to bus stop & 5 min ride to highland). The 14 bus is also close which takes you to Bart and downtown Oakland.
I would bike (2 miles) to Lakeshore which has a great farmers market on Saturday mornings, the lake and lots of cute restaurants and coffee shops. I couldn’t have asked for a better location, especially since I decided not to bring my car.
House:
BEAUTIFUL! CLEAN! PERFECT. The pictures are great but it doesn’t do the house justice. The decor is stylish and simple. Tyler also has a great selection of workout gear (rower, kettlebell, weights, slam balls, TRX) which has been so helpful because gyms are closed.
My favorite part of the house is the backyard which is enough room to workout, relax with some wine or read a book.
You get plenty of room for your bathroom and kitchen needs as well.
Tyler:
Great guy to share a house with. He is thoughtful, kind, quiet and friendly. We both enjoy our personal time, but also frequently chit chat at home. He is CLEAN, but does not expect you to be as clean as he is. He is also socially aware and respects the Oakland community and the neighbors which is a huge plus.
All in all, I was VERY happy with my 6 week stay at Tyler’s place.
