We really enjoyed our stay. It was our first time in OAKLAND and this was the perfect place to stay. We felt safe and at home. The TV was perfect and has many channels (we were really interested in the local channels). We were able to cook our breakfast every morning and we even did some of the things the host recommended. We absoultely loved his recommendation of checking out "Friday Nights at OMCA", it was totally worth it! We recommend David's place if you plan to go to Oakland or San Francisco and need an affordable nice place to stay.
