I arranged for my daughter to stay at LOLA's Place: An Oakmore Retreat. She wrote the following review regarding her reservation…

I had the great fortune of staying at LOLA's Place: An Oakmore Retreat for two nights on the eve of my move to Mills College. As I was driving cross-country at the time, my mother had to make the arrangements for me, so the booking process was rather unusual. However, Lisa could not have been friendlier or more accommodating in the face of my uniquely chaotic situation. Lisa is easy to reach by email and responds very quickly.

Lisa and Sigi are wonderful people and tremendous hosts; I very much enjoyed chatting with them about their lives and their beautiful home! They are very personable and are more than willing to answer any questions you might have or offer suggestions for places to go and things to do. At the same time, you can enjoy your privacy, if you so wish.

The location is exactly as shown in the pictures, if not even prettier! The spacious backyard patio offers a great place to soak up the sun, and the garden is lovely and relaxing. The two rescue dogs are utterly delightful and I thoroughly enjoyed playing fetch with them in the backyard.

My room was incredibly spacious, quiet, and inviting. The bed was very comfortable, the TV offered a great way to unwind after studying, and the desks and lamps provided made getting work done very easy. The electric tea kettle and tea bags provided were a welcomed touch.

The bathroom was very clean and was conveniently located very close to the bedroom.

On account of my cross-country move, I was initially concerned about having a car filled with boxes parked outside. However, I felt very safe in the neighborhood and for the first time in several days, I did not lose sleep worrying about the security of my vehicle. I felt comfortable walking around during the day, and LOLA’s Place is located close to the Dimond District, with easy access to AC Transit buses. In all, LOLA’s Place is perfectly located for those who wish to explore Oakland or San Francisco.

This was only my second Airbnb adventure, and I am so very glad to have found LOLA’s Place. I have already highly recommended this delightful Oakmore Retreat to my friends and family. If you are looking for somewhere to stay in the Oakland area, LOLA's Place: An Oakmore Retreat is not to be missed! You will love your time here and indubitably want to come back again!

Thank you, Lisa and Sigi, for a terrific stay!
