The hosts Barbara and Antosh are very warm and friendly. When me and my wife arrived at the studio, they both came down from their house to say hello and welcome us. The pictures describe the place perfectly. It looks exactly the same as it is in the pictures. Very cozy, neat and very comfortable place. The place looks very brand new, very well renovated. It has all that you need for a couple, a good room size, a very decent closet space and a perfect bathroom. The place has a nice small refrigerator, a microwave to server to your food needs. This was a perfect place for me and wife, we stayed here comfortably for 2 weeks at a stretch. The weather in oakland at this time of the year is super cold, and the hosts were very accommodating and adjusted the temperature to our needs as there is just one heating system for the studio and their home right above the studio.

The place is in a good residential neighborhood, makes you feel secure. Public transportation is like just 10 mins walk from the place. It is like 0.5 miles away from freeway entrance ramps.

I would definitely want to stay at this place again and would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a temporary place to stay in Oakland.
