Spent time here with my grandson. Nancy was very welcoming and accommodating. Centrally located, quiet, attractive surroundings. Easy to find and get to other places like supermarkets, restaurants etc. It's in the lower hills so getting to a walk in the upper hills is also easy. The area is feels safe and is enhanced by the wonderful gardens and beautiful trees in the neighborhood.. Didn't know Oakland had so many Ginko trees. I liked being able to sit outside and have breakfast in the morning.
