This is a good location for a good price in Oakland. Our host was very friendly and responsive as well as providing helpful and accurate check-in info. We did see a lot of mold in the shower and there were a few other cleanliness issues in the kitchen and bathroom of which we informed the host and hope they will take into consideration for future guests.
Just to give a heads up to anyone looking at this listing, the back yard is not totally enclosed if you have a curious small dog like we do! There are some gaps where small dogs can get out especially one leading to crawlspace area under the porch. This is also a listing for a space that is at the back/bottom of a house where the host lives. You do feel a bit tucked into a basement and you can hear the people upstairs walking around and outside on their porch above yours. Not necessarily a bad thing but just to make others aware of what we were not expecting on arrival.
