Very private spacious upper level of house in vital active neighborhood close to many coffee shops, markets, restaurants, specialty shops, walkable Lake Merritt and plenty more! We had easy access to our large apartment, that felt as comfortable as home. Fully appointed kitchen and wonderful cookbooks to peruse. Lovely roomy bathroom tastefully finished and decorated. Enjoyed the large living and dining rooms. A/C available, but unnecessary even in hot weather, as opened screened windows provided ample cool air circulation. Being able to leave our car in driveway was a bonus as daily street parking can be a nuisance. Friendly dog on premises barks occasionally. Linda was a genteel hostess, readily available by text and left some goodies in the fridge prior to our arrival. Thanks for your generous hospitality. We'd love to return!
