Melissa was kind and approachable. She made our arrival easy by being around and available to answer any questions, providing us with a house key, and giving us a tour of the apt. Once we settled in, we found we were within walking distance of most if not all that Oakland has to offer...a few blocks away from Lake Merritt, and some funky restaurants and boutiques to boot.
It was nice to converse with Melissa and get to know her, as well as have our space to come in and out as we pleased. The only downside, we were closer to the highway than we anticipated, so we had the hum of traffic!
