Great Oaktown experience. Diversity on all levels is important to me and I was immersed in just that. Close proximity to downtown, Emeryville, Berkeley, Alameda and to freeway/bridge which leads to Frisco. There is an amazing local restaurant on the same block and corner stores close by.
This studio is an oasis with direct access to the garden roamed by squirrels, birds and occasional cats which were all an interesting reminder of nature in action; certainly kept my dog on her toes and nose. The studio is stocked with supplies and just about anything you may need for convenience and a comfortable stay. The shower is glorious; there are entertaining books and magazines. Parking is a bit tight but not a major issue. Overall it was an enjoyable experience.
