This was my first AirBnB experience and I couldn't have been happier! Although I never got to meet Mosa, she was extremely helpful and communicative from the start. I had just moved to the bay from New York City and my car was jam packed with personal belongings. She made it possible to drop off my stuff before work, had the carpet shampooed and let me leave my car in the driveway. The cottage was clean and cozy, the bed was really comfortable, and the neighborhood is super cute and convenient to the local restaurants and the freeway. The only thing I'd warn future guests about is: do not bring in any open sweets because the ants will definitely pay you a visit! Mosa mentions this in her welcome pamphlet but I didn't see it until after I had left a delicious box of cookies near the window.

Overall, it was a delightful experience. Mosa also provided information regarding neighborhoods to live in Oakland since I had just moved there. She was a wonderful host!
