The studio is beautiful, cozy, and a great location if you are interested in exploring Oakland. Marc & Shara were incredibly accommodating and responsive to any questions we had. Temescal Alley, an adorable street with cafes & stores is within walking distant, as well as a Blue Bottle Cafe. I wish we had more time to explore (as only stayed one night) as it was apparent that the area had a lot of gems to experience. Thank you again Marc & Shara!
