I didn't actually end up meeting Steve, but the accommodations were great and perfect for my girlfriend and I during a brief stay in Oakland. It's cozy and has a real secluded feel, with lots of night little touches throughout. The location is incredibly convenient, with lots of great restaurants, grocery stores and more within easy walking distance. Steve was great to communicate with and made sure we got in safe. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for their own private hideaway while spending time in the bay.
