Ansel was a fantastic host! Really warm and accommodating. He responded quickly and gave us good suggestions for food in Oakland. He also tea, coffee, beer, and snacks stocked with cute little signs. You can really tell he takes pride in where he lives and showing it to visitors.
The tiny house was great! Has every amenity you'd need in an apartment, including a full shower, good wifi, a full size fridge/freezer, gas stove and two TVs with streaming services. Also, you have the space to yourself, unlike renting a room in a bigger house or apartment. And I stayed with my husband who's 6'0" and a former football player; we both had plenty of space in the loft.
The bus was a quick five minutes to the Coliseum BART station, so I don't think you could find a better combination of price, location, and experience if you're looking to visit San Francisco and the Oakland.
