Our hosts, Pam and Richard, were super helpful. Very friendly, and had lots of recommendations on what to see and do in the area.
The house is lovely. Absolutely beautiful, with so much character. The bedroom is bright and clean. Very quiet. Keep in mind you will share a bathroom with the owners, but this was not an issue for us.
Location is great. An easy walk to temescal or piedmont, and a quick uber ride to downtown or berkeley.
