Monika's place is an absolute gem. My husband and I felt so at home there. It was our first time visiting this particular area of Oakland, and we fell in love with it. The Laurel district has an incredibly safe feel. Check in was a breeze, and upon entering the unit, we simultaneously said, "This chick is cool." Everything is so stylish, and tasteful. The unit is equipped with everything one could need, furthermore absolutely spotless. The overall energy is lovely. Monika is kind, flexible, and communicative. We can not say enough kind words. By far our favorite Air BnB.
