GREAT spot. Cute area of Oakland. Very private and tucked away and in a great location where you can walk to a bunch of neat stuff in Oakland. Theres bars, restaurants, the Grand Lake Theater and grocery stores all just 5-10 minute walk away. Theres a cute little patio / yard area that was perfect for my dog and for having breakfast and morning coffee. I didn't run into anyone checking in or out, but it was very easy with a keypad. It is on street, metered parking so make sure you don't forget. I highly recommend downloading the parking app you can feed the meter first thing in the morning without getting up from bed. Despite being street parking I never had any issues finding a spot right in front of the place (and if you don't want to do metered there ARE side streets that are free parking if you're willing to park just a little bit away). Anyways, love this spot. Good for 1-2 people and their dog.
