Amir and Yurri are very friendly people and would try to make you feel at home.
Their apartment is located within walking distance to the Lake Merrit and downtown Oakland. Bart (train) stations are within a few minutes if you take the bus.
The room is spacious enough for one person, or maybe two, if you want it for a short term stay. It has a big closet with hangers and drawers available to use. There is also a mini fridge in the room that comes handy to keep a few perishable items. The room comes with a connected TV (I didn't get to use it though).
The common area (kitchen and living room) and bathroom are very small.
They have everything you might need, so feel free to ask the hosts if you end up needing something you don't have with you.
The neighborhood is home to a mix of nice and shady people. I encountered too many incidents in one month, including one shooting, two messy fights, and one serious car crash (unsuccessful hit and run). And they all happened in the middle of the night. Make sure you have earplugs (if it helps any) if you like your sleep.
