I've stayed in many AirBnBs around the world and this was by far the best experience I've had. The attention to detail throughout the apartment was second to none. It was clear that Sandra and Donald had put a tremendous amount of thought into every fixture and accent, their training as artists shining through in every detail.
Sandra's warm and thorough introduction to the apartment and neighborhood were greatly appreciated. Even though I lived in SF for several years I prefer staying in West Oakland when traveling for business and this apartment is located in my favorite corner of the neighborhood: very quiet, and a short and safe walk to and from BART at any hour. The restaurant across the street provided the start to a great morning routine with delicious food and owners who quickly learned my name and coffee order. The backyard truly needs to be seen to be believed, it's clearly been a longterm labor of love for Donald.
Overall, this place and it's owners represent the best that AirBnB has to offer: one of a kind places to stay in unique areas brought together by true artists of hospitality.
