I booked Mercy's place for a dance intensive and it was the perfect spot for me to land each night. It was close to the studio I was training at, just a 7 minute walk, with lots of great restaurants and a sweet little cafe nearby that I stopped at twice. Unfortunately, the guest before me didn't heed instructions on using the stove and caused an issue with the cooktop on a holiday weekend when repair/replacement was unavailable so I wasn't able to use it during my stay, but Mercy let me know ahead of time so I was able to adjust my meal prep to use the toaster oven, which had a lot of great functions, and microwave instead. They apologized and were also kind enough to send me a bit of a refund because of this issue, which was unexpected but very much appreciated. Check in was super easy and smooth, the place was clean and the perfect size for a solo traveler or couple. It was nice and quiet and I felt very safe. Mercy was super responsive to all my messages. I unfortunately was traveling to Oakland during the hottest part of the year, but Mercy stopped down with a fan to make sure I had some extra air movement throughout the place to help with the record high temperatures.
I would absolutely stay again and it's definitelya place I'll consider for future trainings in the area.
