Having spent 10 days at Josephine's house, we're looking to return. Everything is exceptionally clean, comfortable and quiet. The upgraded kitchen and bathrooms were delightful. The location couldn't be better. It's a 5-10 minute walk to College Ave where there are lots of shops, restaurants, Trader Joe's and a Safeway. The other direction, a 5-10 minute walk, is Temescal where there are still more restaurants, wine bars, and a soon to open Whole Foods. Freeways are close by so all of Oakland, East Bay, and SF is easily accessible.
Josephine responds to any questions almost immediately, and we couldn't ask for a better host.
