My wife & I were traveling to San Francisco from TN for our courthouse wedding/honeymoon and ended up staying in Oakland. So glad we did because we ended up spending more than half our trip there and having a blast! David & Suellen were very gracious hosts, and their backyard oasis is amazing. They equipped us with great suggestions as of what to do in Oakland, San Francisco, and even Marin, that we barely felt like tourists. The room was very comfortable for the 2 of us, and because of the location of the room and the fact that our hosts were so welcoming and low key, we never felt intrusive. We had planned on renting a car, but were located so close to the BART station, grocery store, and many restaurants and bars that we skipped it. Between BART, bikes, Ubers, and walking, we spent less than $200 on transportation the entire 7 days of our stay. BONUS: the next door neighbors are just as awesome. We went to spend time in SF and ended up missing Oakland!
