Jason was very accommodating and his place was great. There was a storm the night before I arrived so the backyard was covered with dirt/leaves (completely out of their control), but the airbnb itself was very nice! The bed was EXTREMELY comfortable and hard to get out of, and the shower was amazing. I didn't mind the neighborhood at all, and never felt like I was in any sort of "danger".. it's a great spot and very close to lots of restaurants and downtown Oakland. Thanks Jason!
