We had a fantastic stay with Sudha! She was a very welcoming host. And even though we arrived very late on Friday night she made us feel at home. Her home was exactly as described, spacious and light with a eclectic mix of art everywhere. Perfect location to explore the Oakland area - in fact we enjoyed the East area so much we didn't even venture to the city! Super handy to the freeway and amenities. Try Blue bottle for coffee and highly recommend Portal for delicious brunch on lake Merritt.
