We were visiting a friend in Oakland with plans for day trips to SF. We picked Venus’s place for its location and value. The fully stocked kitchen was excellent and the place was spacious. We enjoyed many meals and drinks on the patio while viewing the sunset! Finally, the short walk to the MacArthur BART station was key for allowing us to avoid renting a car for the week - we had easy access to both SF and the SFO airport. We will recommend this place for any friends or family staying in Oakland in the future!
