Brian's place is everything you can hope for in an AIRBNB. Accurate description of place which actually turned out better than expected. Brian included thoughtful touches throughout the home. He greeted us upon arrival and even accommodated us when we asked him for a special request. The place is a short walk to Lake Merritt which had fun events and a Farmers market the weekend we stayed there. Close to stores and restaurants. He even checked in with us during our stay to make sure we settled in ok and if we needed anything else during our stay. The place was clean, quiet and I felt safe even coming home late at night. Perfect place to stay!
