Excellent location to fun shops, BART, morning coffee and east bay adventures. The apartment has nice character and kept clean. It is very minimilist as in two towels and extra towels are by request, iron is by request and minimal spices etc. BUT has all the basics. for being a busy area it's quiet inside and can minimally hear the upstairs neighbors. It has a cozy outdoor garden area you can access which is nice to enjoy with your morning cappacino you can get next door. On weekend free parking at BART which was a block away. I would definitely recommend for a short visit!
