Pros: Spacious and newly renovated apartment unit within a very large home conversion building. Super convenient location on a primary street, with quick access to two major freeways and walkable to the awesome downtown Glenview area. Immediate area is a sunny, safe and suburban part of Oakland, but of course it's still a city in the end. Parking is very easy. Owners are a joy to work with, and the stay couldn't have been easier.
Cons: Trends from prior reviews are spot on. Bath is very small but functional, amenities are sparse but cover basic needs. And one super important alert is the noise. It is very real. Walls and windows are thin, which is a big problem for a unit facing a major street with lots of traffic. Early mornings can be a real issue, even for sleepers who are accustomed to urban environments.
