I enjoyed my stay at Jason's. He was very gracious about letting me bring my little dog, and even though he was out of town, he tried to answer my questions (he helped me figure out how to set the heater) as quickly as he could. The apartment is in a beautifully renovated building from the 1880s--nice to get a little of the flavor of historic Oakland while I was in the Bay Area for a long weekend. Apartment is behind a locked security gate and has some nice amenities, like laundry and the hot tub. Convenient street parking.
