Steve has a cool place! I may be biased, because I used to live in Oakland so I felt comfortable in the area. It’s in a perfect spot, so there are many places in walking distance. Whole Foods, Target, bars/restaurants, Lake Merritt, etc.
A few cons for me were there’s construction going on right now close by during the day and the internet connection wasn’t fast enough to do the work I needed to do. Also the space heaters weren’t enough at night for me. Bring cozy layers if you’re like me and are sensitive to changes in temperature.
I’d still recommend the place to others based off location.
