Excellent apartment in Oakland. The apartment was spotless, nicely decorated, bright, and large. Ideal for one or two people. The location was very convenient for access to Lake Merritt and a number of restaurants and bars. And, Whole Foods is just a few blocks away. We parked on the street and that worked out well, although we didn’t use our car much. Shimmy was a very accommodating host and her instructions were very clear. We were very pleased.
