The room is great for relaxing and sleep. I communicated to Kevin that I would arrive in town early and he quickly spoke with Mary (his roommate) who was able to accommodate an early checkin for me (11:30am instead of 3pm) so I was greatful. It is located within walking distance to Kaiser and a 5 minute drive to Children’s Hospital of Oakland so it’s a great place to stay if you’re visiting either place.
My biggest complaint would have to be the lack of cleanliness in the bathroom. The rugs could use a wash and both the toilet and shower would benefit from a nice scrub. I do tend to be a stickler about keeping a clean bathroom but if you aren’t as picky, it will probably be fine.
Also, on the day of my checkout, I woke up at 6:30am to Mary on the phone speaking loudly and cursing/complaining about past experiences with Airbnb customers. I hadn’t been there much and had exchanged very few words with her so I was really confused about what had set her off. I was leaving within the hour anyways so I was ok but it would’ve been VERY uncomfortable if I had planned to stay longer.
