Fred and Janet were excellent hosts. They made us feel really at home with a very comprehensive tour of the building, a nice multipage guide of the area with suggested spots, and even a nice welcome basket. The space was as promised, really great for two people with a large well-equipped kitchen. The location was stellar, easy walk to restaurants, downtown, and Lake Merritt. Building occupants were friendly and it felt safe. We would happily stay here again the next time we're in Oakland.
