We really liked this little spot. The location is amazing and it's on a very quiet street a block from Lake Merritt.
If you are ok with staying in a house with family members and their possessions, this is a good spot and good value for the price. The bed was very comfortable and they provide good towels and lots of storage space for suitcases and other items. Remember that you were sharing a bathroom with the owners sister. We sometimes felt that there was a cleanliness issue with the toilet, but outside of that the bathroom situation was fine. The family who runs this room or incredibly kind and very responsive and very helpful. They also went out of their way to make sure we had a parking spot since we drove into town which was very nice of them.
Neighborhood notes: Whatever you do, avoid the Ethiopian place down the street called Enssaro. We found them to be very homophobic and incredibly rude, and they also force you to order through an app like Doordash even though they serve you- its classist and a horrible experience. One place we really loved in the neighborhood was the Iranian place just down the corner called Persian Nights at Bacheesos. Also - try the amazing coffee at Equator Coffee
