I really enjoyed staying at Faith's place. It was a very authentic Oakland/Berkeley experience.
The room was very big and cosy, had two windows, a table with a chair, and a good armchair. The house is old and has a very nice wooden smell inside. Faith was very nice and responsive. There were a washing machine and a dryer that I could use.
There're two amazing cats: one inside the house and another one outside. The cats were very cute and funny: sometimes one of them stayed in my room overnight when I left the door open.
The common areas were not 100% clean as long as there are several people staying in the house. But that was more than okay for me. There was also a little bit of a construction site across the road, so sometimes I could hear some noise during the daytime on workdays. Other than that the area is very nice and quite.
Highly recommend this place for everyone not allergic to cats!
