I had a comfortable stay at Vanessa’s place, conveniently located in the heart of downtown Oakland - with a short walk to BART. I was able to journey in and out of the city (San Francisco) and around The Town with ease, hardly ever needing an Uber unless it was late.
The room and bathroom were very clean and well-appointed. I was able to cook meals in the kitchen and store my food in the pantry with no issue. You will not regret this stay!
