Janet and Fred's place was lovely. It was convenient to both Oakland and San Francisco. I was in town for a friends wedding, but had opportunities to get together with friends from other surrounding areas as well, and to learn a little about the neighborhood that Janet and Fred's place is in. It is definitely a cool area, with a very intriguing art scene which I would like to investigate more. I rented a large SUV and could not use their parking facility because of that, and I am pleased to report that I had no problems with street parking. I would definitely stay at their place again. It was fabulous :) :) :)
