My mom and I were in Oakland just short-term for a marathon apartment hunting weekend as I am transitioning up there for a graduate program. I live all over the world, and I am pretty flexible about where I stay, but my mom is a New Yorker and very particular about her bed and sleeping arrangements. Our Airbnb was so clean and comfortable, like a little hotel. She was so impressed by the room, and the great neighborhood near so many great restaurants and the lake; she felt right at home. Our task was much more doable, thanks to Alex. I would definitely recommend it.
