This place is fantastic! The location is exceptional, just half a block from Piedmont Ave shops, restaurants etc. Even the local grocery store is 2 doors down, making it so easy to stock the refrigerator.
Maurice was very easy to communicate with. We asked if our friends could drop off a pack n play and a few other items for our kids because we were coming in so late, and he easily accommodated that.
The house is charming and fairly well appointed. At first I was a little worried about sound traveling between bedrooms because we have 2 young children who wake each other up sometimes at night, but the layout is perfect in that the bedrooms are a good distance apart, so it really wasn't an issue. Having the 2nd bathroom was a huge plus and the laundry was the cherry on top!
Definitely recommend staying here if you're visiting Oakland. I know we'll be staying here again the next time we visit.
