Judy is a great host and a very friendly person. She was always wiling to chat whenever I was around. She also showed me the neighborhood the first day I got there. I was originally supposed to stay in her place only for 5 weeks but due to some personal reasons I needed to stay for a longer period and Judy graciously accepted to extend my lease for another seven weeks. Judy’s house is located in a nice and safe area in Oakland. If you don’t have a car, it a short walk to grocery stores and bus stations. Overall, I had a very pleasant experience in Judy’s place and highly recommend it.
