Melissa’s space was the perfect getaway. She responded quickly, lended me a rolling pin when I needed it and was just lovey all around. The space itself was awesome! A killer view with a kitchen counter that was a joy to bake on. The open layout, the view, the access to so much in Berkeley and Oakland was great. The only thing is that we stayed during a heat wave and the cottage does not have A/C—which is pretty common in the Bay Area! This area didn’t have to worry about heat until fairly recently. Anyway, this was a get retreat away from crowds. Would recommend.
