Leah was very responsive to my questions prior to me arriving. Upon arrival she communicated with me to let me know I could come in a bit earlier, as I had already arrived in the area from my travels. The private retreat in Oakland was perfect for my needs. I took a week long workshop in San Leandro in which I was able to get on the 13 freeway to the 98th street with super ease. Berkeley is close as well so I was able to enjoy some coffee houses, shop at Trader Joe's and eat yummy Thai food. Leah checked in with me during my stay to make sure I was ok. The retreat was clean and had all the basic ammenities for heating food and water and refrigeration. I felt safe and comfortable during my stay. Thank you Leah for providing this retreat and thanks for your hospitality during the week.
