We didn‘t met Catherine, but selfcheck-in was easy and we had a nice stay in Oakland. Bart is 10 min. footwalk away, neighborhood is quiet and seems to be safe.
Catherine was just one textmessage away, bath- and bedroom were clean and had everything we needed for 3 nights.
As other guests already had mentioned you should know that Catherine and her familiy are living right above the studio apartment. So outside of quiet-time you can hear every word and every step from the host-familiy above your head.
Nonetheless we enjoyed our stay at this very stylish location - Thank you Catherine.
