Eric did more than make us feel welcome. He made sure it felt like home. Down to writing "Welcome home O'Neals!" on a chalkboard. He was there to answer our questions and made sure that we had everything we needed for our month long stay. The place was completely as described. We didn't have any surprises. :) The location is amazing. Walking distance from so much in Lake Merritt. Also, It's super close to several busses that will take you directly to San Francisco. Couldn't have been happier! Eric has been an epic host. Went way beyond his duty multiple times for us.
