We are new to Airbnb and had wanted an entire home or apartment, but none were available in the area of Oakland that we wanted, so we chose taking a room in Susan's home. Our stay with her was beyond our expectations. Her home is large and beautiful. It is decorated with interesting eclectic pieces of furniture and art. Our bedroom was not large, but big enough to meet our needs. The on suite bathroom was well appointed with a large shower. She was comfortable with us hanging out in the living spaces and for breakfast left us the best granola I've ever had, in addition to fresh fruit, bread, cheese, yogurt. Best of all, Susan is a gracious and welcoming host. We never felt like we were intruding on her space and enjoyed getting to know her and her husband. We look forward to staying with her again the next time we visit family in Oakland.
