My boyfriend and I stayed here after a backpacking trip to Yosemite. Linda's space is wonderful! She was a joy to meet and an overall great host. Communication was easy and seamless. Linda was flexible with our check-in/out time since we didn't have much of an agenda. We were able to park our rental car in front of their house which was really great. To get to San Francisco, we took an Uber to and from the Jack London Square ferry, BART, and bus stations. You won't be able to walk to the public transport stations since the house is fairly high up on the hill, but it provided an experience to see some deer and turkeys roaming around. (Note: It's about an hour with a car and 2 hours with public transportation to get to and from the apartment. It got somewhat pricey during peak hours.) The space is a finished basement connected to their house so we did hear some walking around upstairs during our stay. It was nice to have access to Wi-Fi and Netflix for some extra couch time that we desired. As most homes in CA, there's no AC, but there is one opened window, french doors, and there is a furnace for colder months. (We were really wanted some AC since we'd just spent time in the woods for a week, but it was nice out so the opened window kept us satisfied.) Linda stocked the apartment with coffee, tea, and some snacks! She also left a list of their favorite places and recommendations for Oakland to-do's. I recommend staying here for a trip in Oakland. Thanks Linda!
