My friend Claire and I stayed at Vicki's studio for a couple nights when we came to see a show at Fox Theatre. The studio was precisely what I expected. We were delighted! Lots of light and cozy. Claire slept on the main bed, I slept on the trundle. We both slept very well. Very comfortable. In fact I struggled to get up and attack the town as planned. It was super quiet and peaceful. Beautiful and fragrant neighborhood. Lots of flowers blooming. Vicki was out of town, but we were well taken care of by Margaret who is a dear neighbor. She was the perfect substitute host. Warm and gracious and full of good humor. We loved her immediately. Vicki also checked in and communicated ahead, so we truly felt we were welcome. I had never been to Oakland, so it was nice to arrive and feel so safe and at home. I hope to visit again.
