We had a wonderful 3 week stay here. I am from the Bay Area originally and now live abroad so we came to visit friends and family and slip in to Bay Area life for awhile. The cozy and beautiful home, sunny back yard and easy walking to the shops and restaurants of Piedmont ave let me and my family pretend we lived in the best part of Oakland for a few weeks.

Our 10 month old daughter loved the freedom of staying in a kid-friendly place and enjoyed playing with all the toys!

We hosted lots of friends over for dinners and afternoon tea on the back deck and it felt great to have a welcoming home with lots of character to share.

Next time we come to the Bay Area we will definitely consider coming back.
