I've stayed at David's place a lot and talked a lot about the amenities. It's a great location, close to BART and not too far away from the UC Berkeley campus. There are plenty of great restaurants nearby, as well as a grocery store. Street parking is available if you need it. The rooms are extremely comfortable, full of character, and the house is well stocked with all the amenities.
But I don't think I have mentioned David enough. He's a wonderful host who really wants to make sure that his guests have everything they need. To give you an idea of what I mean, it's not a far walk from the Rockridge BART station, but knowing that I was getting in late (after 10pm) one night, and would be tired, David offered to pick me up at the BART station to make the trip that much easier. He also tries to meet his guests at the door--especially first-time guests--so he can give a tour of the place and help them settle in.
I can't recommend this place enough.
