I stayed at Shimmy’s cute and quaint apartment during a brief stay in Oakland to visit family. Shimmy was able to accommodate me after my arrangements to stay with a family member fell through and I was super grateful. Everything is as shown with thoughtful touches throughout. The space is small but comfortable, especially for two guests. As mentioned in the info, it is hard to find space to park at night but the location is convenient and in the nice, quiet Lake Merritt neighborhood of Oakland. Would recommend staying if you’re ever in town.
