Steve was a great host--very flexible and generous! The studio was a cozy little space that was perfect for the two of us to stay for a wedding weekend. At Steve's suggestion, we hopped on the free "B" bus a few blocks down to get around, walked to Lake Merritt, and picked up some easy breakfast, lunch, and snack items at the Grocery Outlet, Sprouts, and Whole Foods all within walking distance of the place. The outdoor sitting area, though in Steve's backyard, was a nice sitting place to eat and catch up on reading. Highly recommend this place. For the price, it's in the perfect location--tucked away on a little cul de sac but easily accessible to everything you might need on a weekend away. And, Steve was super friendly and easy to coordinate with.
