My partner and I stayed at Shimmy's spot for 3 nights and loved it! It was clean, well-lit, spacious, and perfect as a remote work space and home base for exploring Oakland. We were able to park right in front of the building. The location is great—on a relatively quiet street but a short walk to Whole Foods, Lake Merritt, and fantastic restaurants. We enjoyed both getting takeout and cooking meals in the well-stocked kitchen. The bed was insanely comfortable, and the shower was great. Shimmy was a kind and generous host. We were sad to leave so soon, and would definitely return again!
