Great place to stay if you want privacy but don't want to pay ridiculous prices. We went into San Francisco nearly everyday and the Bart was convenient to take from here. Another day we walked around Oakland: there's a great bookstore nearby, Jack London square is an easy walk, and there's even a few amazing vegan restaurants within a 15 min walk. Alex was quick to respond to questions and quick to supply a toaster when we asked for one. Would stay here again.
