Chris & JoAnn's home is beautiful. There is no air conditioning or ceiling fans, however, and we were there during a major heat wave. The area fans that they had were not very effective against the heat and at one time the place was 88 degrees inside. To make up for it, Chris very kindly bought a portable air conditioning unit for the place. This made a world of difference! If there is another heat wave in Oakland, I would make sure that they still have the unit. Otherwise, the place is a beautiful, pristine pad that is centrally located without being noisy.
