Jen is an outstanding host! She kindly welcomed us and gave us many recommendations about Oakland and the beautiful Bay Area. The apartment is very cosy and spiritedly furnished. We found everything we needed and slept very well. Lake Merrit that is only a few steps away from the apartment is a beautiful place in the mornings to go jogging and in the evenings during the lively weekends. We have absolutely no complaints. The entering and leaving of the apartment was really easy and Jen responded to our questions immediately and in a very pleasant manner. We had a wonderful trip and were happy to stay at Jen's home.
