Very positive experience - this is in a good location as far as ease of walking to BART, downtown, free Broadway St. bus, Lake Merritt, and especially close to Whole Foods. The listing description and photos are accurate. Very clean, spacious, and fit my needs perfectly. Bed was comfortable. The kitchen has essentials, and coffee is well stocked. David was very responsive and helpful to my questions via email. Loved the self check-in and privacy.
As others have mentioned, it is not in a residential area. Not a problem for me, but others should be aware. Although there are a couple other houses, it is mostly auto care shops and car rental agencies, as well as a few other businesses like a craft center and a bindery. Very little traffic though, so that is not a problem. Noise was not at all an issue except for some truck or construction noise that started around 6:30am weekdays. I had the windows open to let in the nice breeze, so if windows had been closed the noise probably wouldn't have been noticeable. I am an early riser so this wasn't a concern for me.
