We had a really nice two night stay in Oakland. The studio is beautiful. Little post its greeted us with instructions on how to use the lights and wifi. Paul offered to help me with my bags. The place was clean and really nicely laid out. The bed was so comfy. I really appreciated the added extras such as towels, cutlery, microwave, fridge, tv, stereo, shampoos, tea/coffee, oatmeal :)
The area is safe and quiet with plenty of parking. Paul takes great care of the garden. We hadn't a chance to sit out there but it looks beautiful. I would highly recommend this place.
